I am from the power of those who came before, who erase my doubts of my existence, who fuel my resistance, and who guide me in creating gifts of love for the future.
-Theressa Lenear, in Stories of Resistance
"Executives who excel at execution resemble Nordic Vikings, who attacked when they saw an unprotected spot and retreated when they realized they couldn't win, maneuvering their longboats toward the next opportunity." Offering insights for contemporary leaders, Donald Sull, in his Harvard Business Review article, "Are You Ready to Rebound?" (March 2010) continues...
"Once Vikings seized a bit of land, however, they often remained to farm it. Over time, they came to value the security of protecting what they had more than the adventure of pursuing new opportunities. Organizations are susceptible to a similar dynamic. As a business matures, early entrepreneurs may leave for new adventures or settle into safe routines at the firm. New employees join the company for its perceived stability, not for adventure. What started as a Viking outpost becomes a farming community. Firms need farmers, of course. But companies with too few Vikings on the payroll struggle to execute with sufficient urgency."
