Leadership Wisdom For Executives, Part II

As previously mentioned, in a Harvard Business Review video, leadership consultant, Ron Carucci, studied successful executives to find what they did differently and  discovered four key factors. The second factor in our series is “Context.” 

Successful executives do the work necessary to gain understanding of trends in their culture, industry, and within their organization.

Having context will enable you to make wiser and more informed choices.

In 1 Chronicles 12:32, the author credits one family with understanding the importance of context when he wrote, “The sons of Issachar, men who understood the times, with knowledge of what Israel should do.”

If you’re in a new role, invest time in studying trends and gaining context so you can better serve your organization.
