I like Sternberg's model, where it's thinking short and long term, with all stakeholders, not those just close, and with a sense of values (I reckon that's your "right lense and certain type of focus" (sic). It's the willingness to do the right thing even if it's difficult that's real heroism.<BR/><BR/>Re: optimism/cynicism, I like the rubric: it's unnecessary to posit conspiracy when incompetence is sufficient explanation.Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07822235162664957878noreply@blogger.com
