FRANK WAGNER SHORT CLIPS – four 1 – 3 minute excerpts from 54-minute talk.

1. Focus On Strengths – Why might focusing on a key strength lead to a bigger payoff than working on one of your weaknesses? Listen to a real life example of an excellent top executive who chose to do just that by picking his strongest skill as a leader, as evaluated by direct reports, peers, and the CEO.
2. Good Enough Plans – Learn about the very useful mindset of “good enough,” as it relates to planning and execution in a world moving at ever increasing velocity. This mind shift in thinking may be very valuable to any leader who wants to keep pace with today’s rate of change.
3. Tap the Collective IQ – Where lies the wisdom we need to tap in order to stay ahead in whatever venture we undertake? Often the wisdom we need to tap is not found in the usual sources we consider worthy of our attention. This short video poses the question of who, and how, we might tap the intelligence that is available to us.
4. Strategy and Implementation – It is rather unsettling to consider how many strategies fail to achieve successful implementation. Listen to the sobering statistics around the failure/success ratio of good companies with smart people whose job is strategy implementation.
