Everyone admires visionary leaders like Jeff Bezos and Steve Jobs, who look past the conventional wisdom of their day, foresee a different and better world, and mobilize others to join them in their quest to create it. But few leaders understand the principles and practices that practical visionaries use. It is not just what they think but how they think that allows them to see so much farther and clearer. In this episode we will discuss: · How leaders can catalyze even the most complacent companies into visionary-driven growth · How leadership teams can develop a vision from scratch, connect it to a strategy, and then program and implement it in the best possible way · How to embed future-back thinking in both an organization’s C-suite and its wider culture · How a sufficiently long-term planning horizon and a powerful firm vision have allowed such unicorns as Amazon and Google and long-established enterprises like Procter & Gamble and J&J to sustain their growth.
