 Episode notes 
Leadership Elevation Is Strategic
- Elevating leadership means pulling yourself out of the weeds and shifting to strategic perspective.
 - Systems plus behavior are both required to achieve real organizational change.
 
The Trap Of Linear Progress

 - Those minor adjustments eventually reach an endpoint where further tweaks no longer advance the business.
