VA Supervisors
Books & Authors We've Spoken About
Many of you have this book by Jim Collins. Turn to page 202 and read about BHAG. It is a humorous acronym that stands for:
BIG HAIRY AUDACIOUS GOAL.
Translated it means a goal that may seem like a huge reach...
Like being the best VA Hospital in America. What can EMS do to make that goal a reality?
Reading Now:
Yes... took a picture of the book in my lap... You might remember the author's name from an article I mentioned called, Leader As Coach, featured in the November-December issue of Harvard Business Review. The article provoked me to get on Amazon and see what books she has written. Next day, it arrived.
Ibarra writes,
"...so it is with leadership. Research on how adults learn show that the logical sequence
- - - think, then act
- - - is actually reversed...
in becoming a better leader."
we'll talk about this at our next workshop
