The blogs (essays) in this collection are intended to provoke thought and dialogue. They first appeared on www.roelfwoldring.wordpress.com. These reflections on experience address topics such as: - the real requirements for lasting organizational change, - managing and measuring, or how to improve managing through realistic measuring, - selecting senior organizational leaders, - the fit between a business's nature and the abilities of its CEO, - the marginalization of older workers in the workplace. Roelf's perspective on social issues reflects his business experience and his post graduate training as a workplace psychologist. When he focuses on social issue, he addresses topics such as: - the link between executive compensation and financial disaster, - the current problems with pensions, - the way in which technology has been systematically destroying the jobs people depend on for their families' income, - myths about talent and who it really belongs to in our society, - the real lessons people learn from history.
