All the really hard, sticky, difficult issues landed in my office. It was deeply rewarding and often incredibly challenging. From that experience, I came to recognize that so much of what goes awry in organizations can be traced back to missing conversations—or conversations that were poorly handled.

In modern business, the caliber of leadership is arguably the single biggest predictor of an organization’s long-term success. Anyone can hold a title, but the true measure of a business rests on the effectiveness of its leaders, those individuals who can translate vision into tangible results and rally people around a common goal. There is a palpable gap between what most people consider a "good leader," often defined by a pleasant demeanor or years of experience, and a gen
