I read Lee Ioaoca's book and it certainly is scary. It seems we are both in total agreement with him. There have been many leadership classes started. I have been personally involved with some of them. USC has a school of leadership. But, unfortunately, it is hard to teach - it is something that comes from within. In the past times of crisis, we have been blessed with great leaders, but I know of no one of stature on the scene today that could match Winston Chuchill, Franklin Roosevelt, etc. The leader must also be a great communicator, and of course that was the title that was put on Ronald Reagan. Today's politics is awash with lobbyist, special interest and intense stupidity. Hopefully, somebody will rise. Debbie,

I want him on a healthcare idea I have, but this is up his alley. I am referring to Lee's last book Where have all the leaders gone", which I read and he is so right. So where do we go from here, lets pool ideas, Congress isn't making any decisions. what about starting a movement on defining and inspiring leadership and interview to find new leaders.
