"Power of Pull" Ch 7 and Wrap-Up

Thanks again to Don Bolen and Steve Maul for the questions, and to everyone who participated in this book chat. I thought we had a volunteer to lead the next one but appear to have been wrong about that. These tend to pop up in serendipitous ways when we have a confluence of facilitator and book interest, so stay tuned for news of future chats.

Q19  (Chapter 7) How do you address the "not invented here" mindset? How can you "foster a learning disposition?" loc 3749


QWrap1 (let's abbreviate QW1) We've heard few dissenting voices in this chat. Any criticisms/concerns about the ideas we've seen? 


QWrap2 (QW2) What elements of push in your world do you find hardest to overcome? Has book given you any ideas? (ex: continuing investment in knowledge stocks = constrains agility)



QWrap3  (QW3) What will you do do differently now? How can you live "Power of Pull" in your life/work? 



QWrap4 (QW4) Access/attraction/achievement: What skills do you/we need to build?
