As a shy, military brat starting school in Great Britain, I was anything but comfortable in my own skin. At home my father was a disciplinarian. At school, kids who were too talkative got called out.

A main job of leaders is to motivate their teams. Faced with endless changes and challenges, employees need leaders who will give them energy to continue when all seems lost. Yet, it is amazing how stupid some leaders can be when they try to motivate their teams. We are especially surprised when we work with really bright executives (Ph.D.'s, MD's, MBA's at Fortune 500 companies) to find that even they employ the stupidest strategies.

There is usually a gap between a CEO’s aspiration for innovation and the reality of making organization innovation happen. As a result, most of them repeatedly find themselves faced with more questions and fewer answers. Orbit-shifting Innovation is the outcome of Erehwon’s twenty-year quest to find answers for the unanswered questions of innovation, the unanswered questions raised and posed to us by CEOs.

Nine assignments as a turnaround CEO have cut a path for me to a single, overarching conclusion about leadership in a job at the top. Of a company, a division, a team, a project, a family or a church group - Concentrating on "follower-ship” is what counts.
