 Choosing
www.LeadCap.org

““Your life is the sum result of

all the choices you make, both
consciously and unconsciously.
If you can control the process of
choosing, you can take control
of all aspects of your life. You
can find the freedom that
comes from being in charge of
yourself.”

 Building a Nation of Leaders
www.LeadCap.org

" LeadCap is nurtured by thinkers from the Ivy

League with a vision to build the first
leadership democracy in the world; to build
India as a nation of leaders.

“Is there an Indian equivalent of the American

Dream? LeadCap is striving to identify it:”
Forbes

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 11
 LeadCap Beliefs
www.LeadCap.org

# Teaching how to fish is better than providing fish: Helping

individuals discover their true potential would help them more
in the longer term than any other aid. This way they would
help themselves, as well as the society.

# Leadership is a decision, not a position: Individuals who

emerged as some of the greatest leaders had nothing
extraordinary about them. Anyone could be a leader
irrespective or birth or living conditions, if willing to decide.

# Leaders breed more leaders: More individuals would embrace

the leadership mantle, if they are made aware that leadership
is a decision. Hence, true leaders are those who nurture more
leaders, not followers.

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 12
 Why Should Anyone Be Led By You?
www.LeadCap.org

“Unless you are clear about your purpose

and your values and are doing something
that you really care about, it is difficult
to act as a leader. You are unlikely to
possess the will and the resilience that are
needed to carry you through the inevitable
uncertainties and setbacks.”
Goffee & Jones

 So, What Is Purpose?
www.LeadCap.org

"Purposefulness arises only through the realization of an idea.

In a realistic sense, an idea can become effective only in man.
Therefore human life can only have the purpose and the
ordering of destiny that man gives it. To the question: what is
man's task in life? there can be for monism but one answer:
the task he sets himself. My mission in the world is not
predetermined, but is at every moment the one I
choose for myself. I do not set out upon my journey
through life with fixed marching orders.”

Leading What ?

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 58
 Marblehead Letter
www.LeadCap.org

1) The social (and economic) divide: the ever-widening

gap between those participating in the increasingly
interdependent global economy and those not, both between
and within different countries. The so-called “digital divide” is
one dimension of this.

How long can 15% of the people get

85% of the goodies?

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 59
 Marblehead Letter
www.LeadCap.org

2) The system seeing itself: What sorts of capabilities,

technologies, and infrastructures need to be developed to
help people better see how local actions impact extended,
interdependent systems that are invisible locally, as well as
the overall performance of the enterprise? How do we balance
autonomy with health of the whole?

How can we stop going faster while

dimming the headlights?

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 60
 Marblehead Letter
www.LeadCap.org

3) Redefining growth: economic growth based on ever

increasing material use and discard is inconsistent with a finite
world, and finite capacity to dissipate waste. Yet, our business and
financial models depend on growth: if a company fails to grow in
revenues and profits, it is out of the game and others who embrace
growth will take its place. This dilemma may require rethinking
how growth can be brought into harmony with the natural
environment. Is there a way to reconceive “growth” in a different
sense? Is it possible to base healthy economies on continuing
increase in value created rather than on continuing increase in
material throughput? What are the implications of such a shift, for
business, financial markets, customers, and investors?

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 61
 Marblehead Letter
www.LeadCap.org

4) Variety and inclusiveness: developing inclusion as a core

competence in increasingly multi-cultural and diverse organizations.
Issues of diversity have been mostly seen as problems to be solved
rather than strategic opportunities. Genuinely embracing
inclusiveness is challenging. How can we develop the capacity to
confront difficult issues that most corporations have not yet been
willing to talk about?

Who is ‘the we’? How do we move from

‘i’llness to ‘we’llness?

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 62
 Marblehead Letter
www.LeadCap.org

5) Attracting talented people and realizing their potential:

developing commitment in a world of “free agents” and
“volunteer” talent. Increasingly, talented and educated people
have many options in their employment choices. Moreover, as
mergers, acquisitions, strategic alliances and diverse forms of
partnership continually reconfigure businesses, this makes
people’s organizational affiliations also more ambiguous. Against
this backdrop of flux and uncertainty rest unchanging personal
desires for friendship and identity with meaningful work.

What will attract people to commit and be

loyal?

http://www.linkedin.com/groupRegistration?gid=1764277 Slide 63
 Marblehead Letter
www.LeadCap.org

6) The role of the corporation: extending the traditional role of

the corporation to be more commensurate with its impact. (Is
there also the need to create a shared understanding of the
reality of the role of the corporation now?). How do global
corporations act responsibly in situations where economic power
effectively supersedes political power? How can global
corporations better understand what determines their “license to
operate” and their “license to grow?” How can they use their
visibility to be a more positive force in a complex world?
