Today, we discuss how CEOs and other leaders are increasingly longing for ways to overcome the challenges of individuals and teams isolating themselves with a singular focus on their own role, without giving due consideration to the other teams who are also vital to the enterprise. Additionally, top-level leaders are gaining greater awareness that it's their responsibility to provide the psychological safety necessary to foster a high-performance culture.

Earlier this month Leo wrote a piece for CEOWorld Magazine entitled, "CEOs Tell Us What Happens in the Learning Zone." It's been about 20 years since Novartis Professor of Leadership at Harvard Business School, Amy Edmondson, first identified the concept of psychological safety and its importance to work teams.

On Medium, Leo published an article about the greater effectiveness of the School of Rock versus the classroom where Charlie Brown (of Peanuts) was a student.

Summer 2021 is nearing an end. Kids return to school in a couple of weeks. Last-minute vacations are getting squeezed into the schedule. Leo and I have had a less than regular podcasting schedule, but we're preparing to get back in the saddle with a more predictable publishing calendar. Hopefully, you've had a great summer. Ours has been busy as Peernovation (both the book and the framework) has gained increased utility around the world. (In fact, here's a sneak peek at the book cover design for the upcoming launch in China).

We hope you’ll buy and read Leo’s latest book, Peernovation: What Peer Advisory Groups Can Teach Us About Building High-Performing Teams. The Kindle version is just $3.99 (as we publish this today, July/August 2021) in order to make it available to as many people as possible. Buy it for you and your group or team members today.  If you like to listen, the audiobook is available now, too!.

Leo is back on the road again. Today he's in Cinncinati, Ohio where he's been addressing some Vistage CEO groups. We catch up to discuss a variety of things on our mind and realize we're producing our "Seinfeld" episode...because today's show doesn't really have a specific theme. We jokingly dubbed it this our episode about nothing. But that's really not true. It's about something significant. The subject is still about the power of WE, our ability, and our willingness to work together to help one another.
