Some of the inspiring stories of leadership at all levels that have emerged from this crisis, and how they relate to our role as leaders.

MOR alums offer perspective on leading change.  Know thyself, always leading and our response to change, and practical tips from quality management.

What does it mean to know oneself? The teachings of G.I. Gurdjieff on the Fourth Way point to many misconceptions we have about ourselves and others. 

Own your experience and expertise.  Know that you don’t talk, write, and think like other people.  A good leader needs to be a good storyteller.
