From the book, The Intentional Organization
"The key thing for leaders running an intentional organization to be aware of is the impact their actions have on the organization. That goes beyond how they behave when they're being challenged, when the company isn't reaching its goals, or in times of crisis. It includes everyday behaviors that include how they manage their team, work with people, make decisions, delegate, support struggling team members, and seek out and distribute feedback."
