Leadership developmentInsight Experience has been working with leaders and helping them accelerate their development for more than 10 years. In our past lives, many of us have held operating roles, been consultants, and led teams and functions in a variety of industries.

The Complexity—and Potential—of Leadership

From this diverse experience base, we share one common observation: This leadership stuff is tough to do. Leading organizations of any size takes energy, smarts, and heart. Sustaining performance from a diverse team can be extraordinarily rewarding—but also draining.

We believe that leadership is, at its foundation, integrative. It allows for variances in experience, knowledge, communication styles, and much more. Leadership is about the “and.” Great leaders integrate strategic perspective and technical know-how. In the words of Rosabeth Moss Kanter, professor of business at Harvard Business School, effective leaders can zoom in and zoom out.

Great leaders integrate business acumen and interpersonal skills. They can articulate a powerful strategic direction and communicate it to their teams—and engage their organizations.

Great leaders are great listeners and are willing to make tough calls. Great leaders know they don’t have all the answers and they exude confidence and optimism that their team can deliver results.

A Platform for Sharing and Learning

This newly launched blog, Insightful Ideas, is a forum for the team at Insight Experience to share observations, learnings, and ideas from our work. Our hope is to ignite interesting dialogue and spur insight from our community.

Our ultimate goal is to help leaders learn, grow, and shift their performance. We want to help them see the connection between their leadership and business results. We applaud them for taking on the challenge.
