Vision is necessary for organizational leaders but not sufficient. In times of accelerating change and increasing competition for resources and attention, leaders must become more agile, more effective, more economical in turning vision into action, innovation and organizational transformation, building their path as they go.

The rules for survival and success are changing for every profession, enterprise and industry, across the globe. New relationships, competences, and organizational forms are emerging.

My colleagues and I are pioneering how to blend traditional, open, and crowd-sourced approaches to learning, competence building, innovation, entrepreneurship, and venturing. For the past 20 years my colleagues and I have been helping individuals, teams, and enterprises to create new organizational forms and to transform existing enterprises into winners. We have literally written the books on making the blue sky (vision) meet the road (execution) differently when needed (transformation) - Transforming Higher Education: A Vision for Learning in the 21st Century, Unleashing the Power of Perpetual Learning, Transforming e-Knowledge: A Revolution in Knowledge Changing, and A Guide to Planning for Change.

Our developmental consulting practice combines strategy, innovation, organizational development, acceleration and transformation to yield success.We are perpetually seeking new partners, ventures, and challenges.
