It's not perfectionism that's hurting us. It's our approach to it
By Julian Reeve
Finding a perfectionist that isn't in some way proud to be one is like finding out you've won $100 million on the lottery. It's not unheard of, but it's rare! Why?

Inc.
Significant risks that can keep organizations from developing thriving cultures — and other organizational threats — become magnified during societal and global crises.

By Robert C. Harris
Executive directors cringe when an incoming chair says, "When I'm installed, I'm going to make changes in the association." Other statements causing dread: "I want you to help me leave a legacy," and, "Here's my list of pet projects." The best approach for a new chair is, "Where is the strategic plan?
