Ricardo Larrabure commented on Claire Power Murphy's group 'Exploring Leadership!'
Good comments all. Just to put a "thinker" into the mix, is not the great leader the one who recognizes that they run a "hive". All workers have their roles, not necessarily predestined forever, but at least a starting point.…

Claire, Hmmm...I thought I had created a new group, but apparently I did not. Let me try again. At the moment we are dealing with a family hospice issue so I need to drop away for a few days.

Claire, I set up the separate discussion group as you suggested. It appears, however, that we may be converging above. Not that this is bad, the topic is large enough to handle a lot of dialogue.

This one is based more on your professional experience in OBSERVING leaders.I hope you will find this to be an…See More

Of course. Let me give some thought to a finite number of questions that might be interesting for the group to explore. We can add and delete as members find relevant.

I like the fact that this group has taken on one of the greatest challenges faced in business...what is effective leadership. May I submit, though, that we are all coming at it from different facets rather than an integrated whole. As an example,…

Helping people and groups be better and perform better than they believe possible.

The capacity to take chaotic situations and make sense out of them by embracing the team.
How did you become involved in your current position? If you’re an entrepreneur, what inspired you to start your own company?
At one point, had over 2500 reports. I saw what great managers could accomplish and how to move good managers to great ones. Also learned that some do not make the curve and are likely to continue to reside as solid, but middle level managers who are also valuable.
