My guest last week was boards of directors expert John Carver. John’s precise understanding of effective governance is an inspiration. Structure drives behavior and in this show we come to understand some of the elements that, when properly structured, allow for organizations to succeed.

Couples in Transition/Systems in Transition

I have two guests this week.

First is executive coach and facilitator of couples retreats, Delynn Copley.

Delynn guides high achieving executives and their spouses into healthy partnering. We will examine the particular challenges top executives face in their relationship life and how to navigate the sometimes difficult waters of that many couples face.

Bill is author of “Dialogue and the Art of Collective Thinking”, senior lecturer at MIT’s Sloan School, co-founder of the Center for Organization Learning, director of the MIT Leadership Center and a leading authority on collective leadership.
