Sustainable Thinking
Posted by Craig | Filed under People
In my view sustainability, in a broader context, is a process whereby one plans to meet an existing need (albeit social, economic, environmental etc.) whilst considering ways to ensure that future generations are able to meet these same needs.
It has been my observation that when this kind of thinking is applied on any level, be it in business or just in our normal day to day lives, it can produce powerful results.
Sustainability is a key ingredient to successful partnerships and relationships, yet it is impossible to achieve without a vision, a sense of ownership and responsibility – which also happen to be the key attributes of an effective leader. Coincidence? You decide.
On a more fundamental level, sustainable thinking also demonstrates that individuals or organisations care for other people and not just themselves.
This kind of thinking comes naturally for some but it is a challenge for others – why this is so I cannot explain. I can only strive to be part of a society that applies and promotes sustainable thinking.

Leadership
Posted by Craig | Filed under People
Nations need leaders.
Businesses need leaders.
Good leadership has a positive effect on our surroundings. I can go on forever and write paragraphs on the topic of leadership, but I won’t.
I want to make one point: Leaders are not machines or algorithms, they are people. Human beings like you and me. While we may not all be leading countries or companies there are many other opportunities where we can shine as leaders.
Our communities need leaders.
Our homes need leaders.
This can be you (and me).
