CEO Moment: Worth Reading

From GapingVoid: "Why is business so hard? Simply put, we think it is due to a lack of humanity." Hugh continues, "There is a coming tsunami of change around the recognition that the future of work is about culture, and the connections that we facilitate between people in our businesses."

He understood through observation that it is social capital that drives organizational effectiveness. He saw that people who had richer emotional connections, were more effective." That is why I am looking to take the ZAPPOS tour in Vegas.
