Show Notes

- Leadership is often seen as a role for the few, but this is not sustainable for the complex problems we face today.
- A hierarchical leadership model can result in communication breakdowns, missed ideas, and bottlenecks.
- A network leadership model can be more effective, where everyone has influence rather than just a few in power.
- To shift towards network leadership, we need to remove labels and share information and resources.
- Sharing means less one-on-one communication and more crowdsourcing and co-creation in a transparent space.
