Plane, Trains and Automobiles

I loved John Candy, the way that he would finish each of his films with that trademark guileless smile and a warmth that always said, “we’re happier together.” In the wonderful Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Dell Griffith (John Candy) and Neal Page (Steve Martin) have one meltdown after another as they try to make it home in time for Thanksgiving.

So Happy Thanksgiving, and here’s to never giving up on our American family. The final snippet of the movie…

Companies need to make the hard calculus.

Is the CEO or Board *really* bought in and prepared to walk over coals for a while to get to that better place? This old article is as true today as it’s ever been.







Your job as a leader is to make people uncomfortable. Pursuing ambitious goals, confronting significant challenges, and moving into uncharted territories—all of which leadership often entails—require people to embrace discomfort. In my new book, Leaders Open Doors, I explain that the central fun...

Our managing Partner, Bill Hoffman, with some thoughtful insight on the importance of experiences that are imprinted in youth, and how they carry though into character and career.

One of the most interesting and rewarding parts of placing senior technology executives is the section of the interview when I ask about the formative experiences of their youth: the experiences that manifest themselves in present-day behaviors and perspectives, and shape lifetime values.
