    Living Water The clear, cool water rushed downstream. Following the narrow canyon, the stream moved over rocks, through small falls, into the nooks of boulders, and then eddied back into the fast moving flow. The steep stone wall of Mt.

    First Mover or Fast Follower? There are Always New Edges to Explore.
    2026/08/02
    This week-end, my five-year-old grandson, Fulton, decided he was ready to ride a bike. I can’t really speak to his decision process. From my vantage point, there was very little forethought, discussion, preparation, practice, or arm-wrestling with doubt. He literally got on a bike and started riding it. There was some faltering uneasiness and the […]

The mold had settled in their HVAC system and for many months had been pumped into all corners of their house, contaminating virtually everything. Watching over the course of a week as workers from the remediation company gutted […]

  • Breakfast, Strategy, and a Culture of Humility

    Breakfast, Strategy, and a Culture of Humility

    I was recently asked to react to a series of common business platitudes. One of the firing-line expressions was “culture eats strategy for breakfast.” The expression is frequently attributed to famed management guru Peter Drucker, though a quick search indicates that the attribution is probably not true. However, I think the expression is meant to […]

  • What Is It ‘To Know’?

    What Is It ‘To Know’?
    2026/09/06
    One of the fascinating aspects of the onslaught of artificial intelligence has been the evolving debate around what it means to be human. At its most basic level, it seems absurd that there is any debate, after all we all know a human being when we see one. But AI has evolved to such a […]

The Summit is an annual event that brings Catholic builders (business and ministry) together to share, learn, and encourage, along the way to building world-class ventures that blend operational excellence with living Christian values. This year’s event encompassed keynotes from leading […]

  • Because I Love You

    Because I Love You
    2026/09/20
    The post below was written in March, 2021. One of the truly beautiful things about such reflections is returning to them with new eyes. A quick survey of nearly fourteen years of posts yields so many learning moments worth relearning…or at least remembering. A great gift of our human journey is the opportunity to meet […]
