Instead of focusing the traditional planning cycles where companies benchmark their businesses against existing competition, teams need to be developed to foster internal change and disruption. Self-disruption is akin to undergoing major surgery, but you are the one holding the scalpel.

No one who ever led a nation got there by following the path of another.

No obstacle is so big that one person with determination can't make a difference.
