WASHINGTON, DC — Over the years, I’ve used this blog to share stories and ideas that reflect words like resiliency, agility and resourcefulness. Typically, posts distill my experiences gained through travel or conversation. Today, I am taking a slight detour in order to highlight a new project that gets to the heart of running a strong and successful business.
Our team crafted this 20-page report from interviews with more than a dozen CEOs.

- Leadership;
- Growth;
- Risk management;
- Culture;
- Stakeholder prioritization; and
- Capital allocation.
