The Hard Truths
Leadership is increasingly lonely and isolating
Novelty is easily confused with quality
Stability is a relic of nostalgia
The best don't always win
Alliances are conditional
Scars build character
Perception is reality
Trust is elusive
Life is not always fair
The only way out is through
Capital markets are unforgiving
The cost of inaction is usually regret
The best is yet to come...if we make it so
Kindness costs nothing yet the returns are massive
What you do is likely less important than HOW you do it
Leadership Advice & Counsel
We know that leadership can be lonely and isolating, even in the best of times. We are not burdened by the financial conflicted interests of investors and board members or the emotional entanglements of colleagues, friends, or family.
Right now might be the greatest time in world history...if we embrace it with respectful boldness. Leaders are required to be conscientious stewards of people, property, processes...everything. Unique to the current environment is the taxing dilemma of diminished engagement fueled by declining trust among employees, partners, regulators, service providers...seemingly everyone, everywhere.
We at Macondray Hill have seen numerous market cycles, dislocations and disruptive technologies. We have guided companies through both massive growth and challenging setbacks, positioned products for break-out launches, led teams on dangerous missions over treacherous, foreign terrain, and helped create environments for enduring growth and renewal.
