@BarackObama America keeps sliding backwards to a dark place we had all thought no longer existed. Don’t you realize how out of step you have become. So sad for our friend and neighbour. Thank God for Canadian sanity and respect.

@MadHabber Maybe you didn’t read the chart correctly. We are near the bottom of the list. Fact check before you body check.

The ability to see order in chaos is called creativity.

Wishing my friend @JustinTrudeau the best in Canada’s upcoming election. Justin has been an effective leader and strong voice for democratic values, and I’m proud of the work we did together.

Think "resilience" is an over used term or a fad management gurus have jumped on? Think again. #changeleadership #strategicleadership https://t.co/1TlQRxS0Tk

Leadership is not about being in charge. Leadership is about taking care of those in your charge.

Rebuilding the "social architecture" of organizations must be the major priority for those leaders who want to reimagine the future. If you miss the boat, then wave tomorrow goodbye. #leadership #socialcapital https://t.co/KnaZNdJEnu

How good is the cognitive thinking ability of your leadership team? Probably not good enough. To quote John Maynard Keynes in today's world its "Better to be roughly right than precisely wrong". #leadership #decisionmaking https://t.co/U20N9EVq9P
