And as someone who’s sort of moved around an awful lot, I must admit, I really struggle with the question - 'What is my Mountain and my River?' The whole idea is that these are critical advocates for who you are and what you’re about, and what you stand for.""And of course, the key task of leaders is to create the kind of collaborative governance structures that sustain, but then the collective leadership that keeps the momentum."Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeJournal - The Journal of Management and Organization - Tribute to Ken PerryConcept - Keith Grint’s four lenses of leadership (A quick reference)Film - NomadlandEpisodes Mentioned in This EpisodeTed Baartmans - Understanding, Acceptance, & RespectDr. Steve Kempster - Leadership for What?Did You Enjoy Phronesis? Subscribe and Leave a Review!Connect with Scott AllenTwitterLinkedInWebsite
