Holding onto a distant past to justify a present grievance is baseless.\u00a0Possibility rides on the bedrock of uncertainty<\/em><\/strong><\/span>. Because nothing in life is ever sure.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The assertion here, however, is that\u00a0there really is no creativity without uncertainty<\/em>.

Our attitude doesn\u2019t have to be driven by the outside world, but sometimes they overlap.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Specifically, when we experience uncertainty \u2013 no matter how uncomfortable and unsettling and destabilizing it can feel \u2013 the good news is that it opens vistas of possibility for new thought and action.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Organizations are created, powered, and led by people. To lead organizations well, we train people in disciplines such as marketing, finance, and leadership.
