How are you leading your “clever” people? A powerful new book speaks about this.

I recommend the book by Rob Goffee and Gareth Jones called “clever”. Makes me realise that I’m very fortunate to have recruited and be working with a very clever team of board and executive coaches. They have all taught me so much and it requires me to lead them in a special way which allows their talents and abilities to flourish with sufficient autonomy, continual search for mastery and a sense of purpose. Enjoy the book!
