One of my greatest fears as a leader has been how to maintain the edge – how do I keep pushing the envelope with my team? How I do keep my team engaged and improving our results? How do I keep from getting complacent.
I used to read Fast Company as a great source for “edgy” material – Tom Peters’s books did the same for me – so did talking with other great leaders at my company (and elsewhere).
I picked up a copy of Fast Company at Logan Airport today and found basically the same fluff that I found in Business Week, Fortune, and elsewhere. It simply wasn’t interesting.
What are you doing to keep the edge? I’d love to hear your story.
