Many of our readers would question why an article such as this on a coaching website?

As is often the case, these decisions will be evaluated with the benefit of hindsight,...

    The following is from Robert Glazer from March 12, 2021. As you build an organization or team, you inevitably encounter both hits and misses. Good teams carefully analyze the patterns of these results to understand what may work in the future, and ensure they don’t repeat their mistakes.  In analyzing the outcomes our leaders at Acceleration Partners have seen over the years, one theme consistently comes up as a reliable predictor of success and longevity: good judgment.  People with good judgment consider the...

    The following article is from Robert Glazer from Friday February 5, 2021. “It’s when you’re acting selflessly that you are at your bravest.” – Veronica Roth I often think back on a presentation I heard years ago by Peter Atwater, a behavioral economist who was speaking to a group of CEOs.  Atwater studies personal preferences in areas such as books, music, architecture, and food, and compares them against social, political, financial and business activities to look for patterns. In his speech, Atwater...
