It is a struggle with which many of us are sadly too familiar: no matter how cutting-edge our vision, how transformative our beliefs, and how ambitious our foresight, it is difficult to implement these bold new insights. Especially in a context where people’s minds are preoccupied with current problems, or committed to traditional behavior, it can be disheartening to witness your game-changing ideas fail to stick.

But can we perhaps change the way a group might think? Could we possibly cultivate a whole new type of thinking amongst our Boards?
