This week’s post is in honor of Michael Allosso, whose Vistage talk for CEOs and Key Executives is titled “You on Your Best Day.” Michael teaches us that the difference between a good leader and a great leader is the ability to improvise and gently push people out of their comfort zone.
In this TED talk, Charlie Todd helps us see the human connection that results from a shared experience — in this case, an absurd shared experience.
Vistage members also have shared experiences; in our case, these happen every month. As the chair and leadership coach, I regularly see the human connection that results.
I wonder about the following:
- Are we searching for opportunities to create shared experiences in our companies?
- What great things can we accomplish in our companies by pushing people out of their comfort zone and introducing more intentional and improvised shared experiences?
The initial results of my Pivot are excellent. I feel I have much greater clarity regarding the next 3-5 years.. 
Elisa — Good video — An exercise worth sharing — Thank you!!
The ability to see the humor and absurdity of the situations is interesting. What an opportunity to celebrate at Best Buy, creating a positive experience, yet missed in the seriousness of the situation.
Thank you. A good way to start a week.
