Much attention has focused on the role of the CEO in the #PostOffceScandal but what role did the Board play? What instructions did it give the CEO and her team? Clearly a failure in #corporatgovance with all the non-executive directors equally culpable. https://t.co/WAWyA7qouY

@SangeetaWaldron @sangettawaldron I agree. A more concerning question is where were the non-executive directors when all this was going on? Their role is to challenge corporate and ethical breaches. They are as accountable for the #PostOfficeScandal as the executives.

I’m delighted that Leeds University Business School has based its Managing in the Midst of Deep Uncertainty programme on #DeyondDefault.

Beyond Default offers an alternative to the traditional vision, mission, values approach to strategy.

On thing I find when I participate in these discussions is that I always learn something. It comes from the different perspectives that everyone brings. https://t.co/Ycgu021An3

All true #enterprisearchitecture decisions are #strategic. Strategic in that they are difficult, if not impossible, to reverse or undo. Getting them right can create a future of many possibilities. #digitalbusiness #strategydevelopment #beyonddefault https://t.co/j7q3f4UhDk

#innovation is not an end in itself, it’s a way of changing what an organisation does and how it does it. It's not possible to change the trajectory of an organisation without innovation. #Strategy #transformation #changemanagement #beyonddefault https://t.co/BuP7oSO7UL

Simply stating strategic choices in the hope that they are self-evident to colleagues is rarely enough. The logic structure – or architecture – behind the decisions needs to be explained. https://t.co/sTIIgb19bo #strategy #strategicleadership #BeyondDefault
