This is not an ad or product placement. This message just resonates.

There's a market café in Livingston Manor I stop at whenever I'm heading home from business upstate. It sure beats the fast food options.

On a recent stop, I found a pint of Ice Cream For Bears, made from all the good stuff: grass-fed dairy, eggs, and sweetened only with raw honey.

Nothing about it is new. It's a claw back to the past, fittingly enough. And that is the message that hit me when I pulled off the lid and read this mantra:

"THE FUTURE OF FOOD IS IN THE PAST."

I have often said that our greatest wisdom is behind us, not ahead of us. I wrote about it a few months ago in a newsletter edition titled “Ancient Wisdom. Modern Leaders.” (See link in comments).

And it dawned on me. As we move deeper into the age of AI, many of us will return to a more basic life. Homesteading will keep growing, and so will the move away from cities. Along the way, we may rediscover much of what we once knew.

I think leadership works the same way. The tools keep changing, but what makes people want to follow you hasn't changed in thousands of years.

Comment if you agree. And especially if you don't. 😉

"Believe you can and you're halfway there.”
Theodore Roosevelt

Anya Cheng has led teams at Meta, eBay and Target, and she still deals with imposter syndrome. In this week’s episode of The Leadership Habit, she tells Jenn DeWall how she keeps it from holding her back, from rethinking the way she talks to herself to just taking the next step even when she doesn’t feel ready. Worth a listen if you’ve ever doubted whether you belong in the room.

“Time is the scarcest resource and unless it is managed nothing else can be managed.”
Peter F. Drucker

It’s easy to look at leadership training and see the hours it takes. It’s harder to see all the hours poor leadership wastes. For Crestcom participants, the math tells a very compelling story: for every hour spent in training, they report getting four hours back in productivity.

“The oak fought the wind and was broken, the willow bent when it must and survived.”
Robert Jordan

Six months after Laura McCracken joined Wirecard, the company collapsed in Europe’s largest corporate fraud. Now she helps boards build what she calls their “resilience muscle,” so that when a shock hits, the organization can handle it and come out stronger. Hear her story and her advice for leaders at every level on this week’s episode of The Leadership Habit, hosted by Jenn DeWall.

“The way your employees feel is the way your customers will feel.”
Sybil F. Stershic

Keeping good people is one thing. Creating an environment where they want to contribute, advocate for the business, and represent it well is another. Karim Amrani shared a lesson from his Crestcom experience that stuck with him.

“The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.”
William Arthur Ward

The worst time to discover your organization's weaknesses is during a crisis. After experiencing the collapse of Wirecard, one of Europe's largest corporate fraud scandals, Laura McCracken learned firsthand what happens when governance, leadership, and culture fail.

On this episode of The Leadership Habit, Laura joins Jenn DeWall to share five pillars of organizational resilience and practical ways leaders can prepare their teams for the unexpected. Because resilience isn't built when everything goes wrong. It's built in how you lead every day.

“The greatest enemy of communication is the illusion of it.”
William H. Whyte

It happens in almost every meeting: someone proposes a decision, people glance around the room, and one by one, everyone nods along, even when something feels off.

Before the group moves on, try asking one simple question: "What are we missing?"

It's a small shift, but it gives people permission to actually say what they're thinking instead of just going along with the room.
