Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek explains the major Sombrero Copper-Gold Project permitting milestone in Peru, which now allows drilling of up to 300 holes from 181 drill-pad platforms. The EIA-Sd permit was received in 7–8 months versus a typical 12–18 months, even after delays tied to Peru's election. The next step is a 30–60 day “start of activities” approval, targeting drilling by September/October, beginning at the Fierrazo target which has shown 232m of .47% Cu surface channel samples and historical holes returning 0.5–0.9% copper over tens of meters. Bebek discusses a $5.5M financing impacted by market/geopolitical uncertainty, Teck maintaining ~9.9% ownership, plans for a larger 60–65 hole, 18-month program across multiple targets, claim optimization to ~57,000 hectares with 12 targets, improving mining sentiment in Peru, and evaluation of potential large-scale U.S. acquisitions after reviewing 240 projects, plus upcoming marketing and conference outreach. 00:00 Intro 00:30 Permit Breakthrough 01:48 Fast Track Timeline 02:57 Fierrazo Drill Plan 04:01 Financing Explained 06:33 Drilling Logistics 07:40 Targets & Timeline 08:55 Region Heats Up 10:08 Claim Optimization 11:10 Peru Politics Outlook 14:02 US Acquisition Strategy 16:35 Catalysts & Marketing 17:45 Copper Thesis Sombrero Sponsor: https://coppernicometals.com/ TSX:COPR; OTCQB: CPPMF; FSE: 9I3 Press release discussed: https://coppernicometals.com/coppernico-receives-approval-for-major-drill-permit-expansion-at-sombrero/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor Coppernico Metals pays MSE a United States dollar seven thousand per month coverage fee.

Text us with topic or guest suggestions!If you spoke to 20 international educators and asked them what factors led them to taking the initial leap into international education, you would likely get 20 very different answers! And if you interviewed as many as 94, well, you can imagine the stories you would hear. Such is the task that Dr. Ettie Zilber set herself.Ettie joined Audey for this episode and shared the eight categories of catalysts, as she has dubbed them, that emerged from her doctoral research on this topic. She also shared many of the stories that her interviewees told her. We know you will connect with the 8 categories of Catalysts as well as with some of the stories.Before retiring from paid employment, Ettie enjoyed a long career in international schools in Israel, Singapore, Spain, Guatemala, China and the USA, serving first as an educator and then as a school Director.She served on the Boards of several Regional Associations and taught graduate courses for four universities which catered to international school educators. After doctoral research on Third Culture Kids, she published the book Third Culture Kids: Children of International School Educators. Other publications relevant to international schools include “Catalysts for a Career in International Schools,” “A Primer for Administrators applying to Proprietary Schools,” and many more, available on www.ettiezilber.comShe continues to conduct workshops on Cross Cultural Understanding at schools and other multi-national organizations.She lives in Arizona with her husband of 52 years, and enjoys visits with her children and grandchildren (one of whom is also a TCK/CCK). Guiding Question:“What are some factors that prompt teachers to leave their home countries and seek employment in international schools overseas?” Topics Addressed Included:Definition of terms (TCK, TCA, ACCK, CCA, multiracial/cultural children, Children of immigrants, Children of refugees, Children of minorities, International adoptees, Domestic TCKs, Educational CCKs, Self-initiated and Assigned Expatriates, push-pull factors of migration)THE BIG 8 - Eight factors that prompt people to decide to teach internationallyChildhood as a CCK (Cross-Cultural Kid)Grew up listening to family stories/seeing artefacts/had family history overseasInfluenced by teachers/colleagues or friends' stories/artefactsReading/literature, TV about overseas Or desire to learn EnglishGrew up in multicultural environment (school, community)Early international travel experiences (independent of family)Intimate relationship/loved oneLife/labour/career status dissatisfaction How hiring schools can seek to leverage these factors in order to grow W4 Wanderlust in general and thus expand their candidate poolsContact Ettie:LinkedInResources Mentioned:Ettie's Consulting Website www.ettiezilber.comEttie's ECIS article on her research 0 ecis+INFOCUS_Ettie_Zilber(1).pdfRecorded on July 17, 2026#transitions | #internationaleducation | goingglobalSupport the showRemember to access our Educators Going Global website for more information and consider joining our Patreon community at patreon/educatorsgoingglobal!Email us with comments or suggestions at educatorsgoingglobal@gmail.com Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube.Listen on your favorite podcast app: connect from our share page.Music: YouTube.

Lightning Minerals Ltd managing director Troy Brice talked with Proactive about the company's exploration progress during the June quarter following a strategic reset focused on gold and critical minerals. Brice said Lightning Minerals had completed four field programs across its Australian portfolio, supported by technical work including petrology, geochemistry and geophysics. He said the company's field and technical teams had worked productively to strengthen the geological models for both the Mt Turner Gold Project and the Warby Tungsten Project in northern Queensland. At Mt Turner, Lightning Minerals is preparing to begin Phase 2 drilling targeting gold and copper mineralisation. The company also continued exploration at Warby, where it is assessing a tungsten opportunity near Mount Surprise. Brice highlighted the logistical benefits of operating both projects from Georgetown, allowing Lightning Minerals to undertake concurrent exploration programs across two commodities. Lightning Minerals also completed a strongly supported A$1.85 million capital raising and progressed the planned divestment of its Canadian and Brazilian lithium assets. During the September quarter, the company expects to advance geophysical work at Warby, progress drilling at Mt Turner and receive assay results from its exploration programs.

We are joined by Michael Rowley, President & CEO and Dr. Danie Grobler, Vice President of Exploration of Stillwater Critical Minerals (TSX.V: PGE – OTCQB: PGEZF), live in the core shack at site, to provide a visual update of the key exploration work completed to date, the primary initiatives on tap for 2026, and the value proposition at the Stillwater West Ni-PGE-Cu-Co + Au project in Montana. Mike outlines that their Stillwater West Project is a very large polymetallic resource with a substantial copper inventory and the largest nickel project in an active U.S. mining district, in addition to palladium, platinum, rhodium, copper, cobalt, chromium, and gold. Overall, Stillwater West is uniquely positioned to become a primary source of 10 commodities now listed as critical, given their location immediately adjacent to Sibanye-Stillwater's operating mine complex in Montana. Danie shares an overview of the structural controls of the geological environment that hosts the mineralization, using the South African Bushveld Igneous Complex as analog, and how their five “Platreef-style” (or contact-type) Ni-Cu-Co-PGE+Au deposits may tie together in a larger sense. He goes on to outline why their 2025 exploration initiatives were successful and shows how there are several mineralized events in the sulfides bringing in pockets of higher-grade polymetallic zones within the overall bulk tonnage type of deposit Danie highlights what they are learning from the geophysical surveys over their district-scale land package, and why their team has high-confidence in the ongoing 2026 drill program, to keep stepping out along the parameters and character of this mineralized trend. Highlights and upcoming catalysts: The updated MRE due out in Q3 will incorporate 14 drill holes totaling 5,781 meters (“m”) from the 2023 and 2025 programs, plus about a dozen select historic holes not included in the current estimate. The update will build upon the January 25, 2023, Inferred Mineral Resource and results will support further technical studies and economic assessments. The work is being led by Mr. Timothy Kuhl (MTS) and Dr. Danie Grobler (Stillwater) who together previously worked with the late Dr. Harry Parker on the resource estimation and technical reports for Ivanhoe Mines' Platreef Mine. Assays are pending from fresh drill core coming off the mountain in the 2026 program. Thus far the anticipated structural controls are holding up as expected.

RJ Spina, a metaphysician who healed himself from chest-down "permanent" paralysis, reveals that suffering isn't real—only your mistaken ownership of a character that was never truly you. From being told he had 48 hours to live to feeling pure joy while his body broke down, RJ shows that liberation comes when you stop identifying with your thoughts, pain, and story. He witnessed agonizing pain without suffering, proving that you are the awareness watching the storm, not the storm itself.Using metaphors like the sun (untouched by weather) and the time-lapse camera (unaffected by the fire it records), he explains that healing isn't a process—it's an instant release of crystallized identity. The ego mind keeps you trapped by turning everything into a drawn-out journey, but letting go can happen in a single second.We explore why narcissists are a separate genus of being designed as catalysts for your evolution, why the soul deliberately chooses trauma for accelerated growth, why unconditional love is actually a spiritual control agenda, the one-second meditation technique, why pain and pleasure are identical sensations at higher consciousness, and how manifesting wealth operates through the exact same inner mechanics as healing your body.Your character gets traumatized—but you, the I AM, have never been touched. Will you keep rearranging furniture in the same room, or finally step out of the house entirely?___
This panel explores what effective allyship truly looks like in practice, why it matters for both performance and culture, and how it can be sustained beyond moments of heightened attention or intent —across roles, regions, and career stages.This panel cuts through the ambiguity to explore how allyship shows up in real decisions, real moments, and real careers. Industry leaders across the global chemical sector share candid stories and practical examples that connect allyship to stronger teams, better performance, and cultures where people feel safe to contribute and grow.
“God, what should I do?” That's the question most of us ask–maybe you’re asking it right now.. Put another way, “what is your will, God?” These aren’t bad questions–they’re good. But they can also be incomplete. Kind of like missing the forest because of the trees. Sometimes the better question is not, “God what should I do?” but “God what are you doing?” In this episode, I want to encourage you to see your circumstances (yes, the ones you are in right now) from a different perspective. Instead of only asking God what decision you should make, what if you also asked what He's doing in you? We'll talk about how God uses trials, relationships, and His Word to shape us into the image of Christ. My prayer is that you'll walk away with renewed hope, greater confidence in God's plan, and the peace that comes from knowing He's faithfully finishing the work He started in you. And, if you’re thinking, That’s great, but I still need to know God’s will. Today’s episode is the beginning point to that dilemma and next week my guest will answer the question, “How can I discern God’s will?” You won’t want to miss it! And remember, I'd love to connect more on Instagram, where you'll find me at @donnaajones. And don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss a single episode!

Rather than only asking: "God, what should I do?" Also ask: "God, what are You doing in me?" God shapes us through three primary tools: Trials – Building endurance and revealing areas for growth. People – Using authentic relationships to encourage and sharpen us. His Word – Revealing who God is and teaching us how to live. When reading Scripture, ask two simple questions: Who are You, Lord? In light of who You are, how do You want me to live?

Contango Silver & Gold president Shawn Khunkhun discusses why CTGO shares are down ~50% since January and how this presents investors with a buying opportunity. The company's current valuation is just three times next year's expected free cash flow, he shared. He explains the key catalysts investors are waiting for, why and how the company eliminated its hedge book. He outlines the DSO model shipping ore to Kinross's Fort Knox mill and how Contango is reinvesting cash flow into Lucky Shot drilling, Johnson Tract infrastructure/permitting, and a 40,000m Kitsault Valley drill program.

Recording date: 11th July 2026Olive Resource Capital delivered an approximate 15% return in the first half of 2026, outperforming many peers in a more moderate market environment compared to the strong gains of 2025. Returns were further supported by three portfolio company acquisitions, two of which closed the period, highlighting the role of opportunistic corporate activity in performance. The firm emphasized that such events are beneficial but not a reliable foundation for long-term strategy.The commodity landscape in H1 2026 was marked by a clear rotation. Lithium and oil emerged as the strongest performers, with oil remaining resilient despite price volatility and lithium rebounding after years of underinvestment. In contrast, gold, silver, and platinum group metals lagged after leading the previous year, undergoing what management described as a necessary consolidation phase.Despite weak underlying commodity prices, Olive's strongest gains came from precious metals equities. This divergence reflects the firm's focus on company-specific catalysts—such as mergers and acquisitions, resource updates, and technical studies—rather than direct exposure to commodity price movements. Holdings like K92 Mining exemplify this strategy, with growth-driven revaluation potential independent of gold price trends.Macroeconomic conditions remained broadly supportive, with strong global manufacturing activity and continued monetary stimulus, although reduced liquidity support from China is being monitored. Geopolitical tensions, including those involving Iran, influenced energy markets but were viewed as temporary disruptions with longer-term implications for supply chains and energy demand.Heading into the second half of 2026, the firm is cautiously deploying elevated cash reserves into energy and uranium, driven by themes such as AI-related power demand, electrification, and favorable seasonal trends. It continues to avoid West African development projects due to rising jurisdictional risks, instead favoring opportunities in North and South America where regulatory conditions are more stable and investment visibility is stronger.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us to for a conversation around how he is navigating this low pricing, low sentiment, low news, and low volume Summer Doldrums period in his portfolio. This includes how he is approaching advanced developers versus earlier stage developers, and the spectrum of different gold and silver exploration companies. We start off discussing the overall sector sentiment is mirroring the bearish metals and miners pricing backdrop. This is also evidenced in the very low volume levels in trading the last couple months from the large producers and sector ETFs all the way down to the junior PM stocks. There has not been nearly as much newsflow as anticipated across the space, where some companies have either sat on some news or scaled down their anticipated work programs. Erik discusses how he is still animated by companies that have work catalysts that can impact their valuations and create alpha in the sector, and prefers those over more mature companies that have work programs that may only move the needle incrementally, and get stuck moving with sector beta and metals price direction. * In full disclosure, some companies mentioned by Erik in this interview, are positions held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording.

In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, Dave talks with Shannon Lucas, co-founder and co-CEO of Catalyst Constellations and co-author of Move Fast. Break Stuff. Burn Out., about the people who drive organizational transformation from the inside. Drawing on her leadership experience at Vodafone and Ericsson, Shannon explains why every company has "Catalysts" - employees who naturally challenge the status quo, inspire innovation, and accelerate change and why so many organizations unintentionally silence or lose them. Dave and Shannon explore how leaders can identify and support these high-impact contributors, the critical roles of recognition, trust, and psychological safety in fostering innovation, and why traditional performance management systems often fail to recognize transformational talent. They also discuss the warning signs of burnout, practical strategies for creating sustainable high performance, and the leadership skills that will become even more valuable as AI continues to reshape the workplace.

Register for School of the Prophets 2026 In this week's episode of Cultural Catalysts, Lindsay Reiman sits down with author and prophetic leader Bethany Hicks for a conversation that's part interview, part activation. Have you ever felt exhausted—not because you're doing too much, but because you might be carrying something you're no longer meant to carry? Together they unpack one of the most important questions every believer must answer: What season am I in, and what is God asking me to do in it? Bethany shares practical keys for discerning your current season, recognizing the assignments God has given you, and letting go of the ones He never intended you to carry forever.

Over the last several months, there have been difficult conversations surrounding the prophetic movement. Questions have been raised. Mistakes have been exposed. And for many people, disappointment, confusion, and even pain have followed. As leaders, we've spent countless hours praying, listening, seeking counsel, and asking ourselves some hard questions. In this week's Cultural Catalysts episode, I sat down with my longtime friend Dano McCollam to discuss where the prophetic has been, where it's going, and what healthy prophetic culture looks like moving forward. We share a little bit about our personal process and how we've been experiencing these things.

Europe is experiencing a rush of investment into data centres as artificial intelligence, cloud computing and digital services drive a new wave of electricity demand.From Finland to Spain, developers are searching for locations with abundant clean power, available grid connections and supportive policy frameworks. But as data centres grow larger and more power-hungry, questions are emerging about whether Europe's electricity infrastructure can keep pace.Grid operators are facing mounting connection queues, policymakers are weighing economic benefits against environmental concerns, and system planners are grappling with how to integrate large new sources of demand without compromising reliability.Could data centres become a catalyst for investment in grids, renewables and flexibility? Or do they risk adding further pressure to already constrained electricity systems?In this episode, Richard Sverrisson is joined by Janne Peljo of Finnish Industries, Elisabeth Cremona of Ember and Liam Newcombe of GreenScale to discuss the future of data centres in Europe, the impact of AI-driven demand growth, grid investment requirements, system stability, and the policy choices that will determine whether Europe can successfully power its digital future.#DataCentres #AI #EnergyTransition #ElectricityMarkets #PowerGrids #EnergySecurity #GridInfrastructure #CleanEnergy #RenewableEnergy #DigitalInfrastructure #ArtificialIntelligence #Electrification #EnergyPolicy #PowerMarkets #EuropeEnergyHost: Richard Sverrisson – Editor-in-Chief, Montel NewsGuests:Janne Peljo – Chief Policy Adviser on Climate and Biodiversity, Finnish IndustriesElisabeth Cremona – Senior Energy Analyst, Europe, EmberLiam Newcombe – SVP Product, Energy Strategy & Innovation at GreenScaleAlina Trabattoni – Italy Correspondant, MontelEditor: Alexandra CarlonProducer: Alexandra Carlon

Interview with David Cole, CEO of Elemental Royalty Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/tether-to-assume-33-stake-in-transformational-royalty-merger-of-emx-royalty-elemental-altus-8002Recording date: 11th June 2026Elemental Royalty Corporation has emerged as a major player in the global mining royalty sector, following the merger of Elemental Altus and EMX Royalty. The combined entity now holds over 300 mineral property interests across 23 countries, positioning itself as a diversified, billion-dollar company with projected annual revenues nearing $100 million. Its commodity exposure is balanced, with approximately 60% derived from gold and silver, 30% from copper, and the remainder from base metals such as zinc, lead, and molybdenum.The company operates on a royalty model, enabling it to benefit from mining revenues without bearing operational or capital costs. Its portfolio is structured like a pyramid, combining producing assets for immediate cash flow, development-stage projects for medium-term growth, and exploration-stage properties that offer long-term upside. This structure supports steady revenue generation alongside asset value appreciation.A key factor in Elemental's growth is its strategic partnership with Tether, which holds a 32% equity stake and has injected $100 million into the company. This backing lowers Elemental's cost of capital and provides financial flexibility for acquisitions without relying heavily on equity dilution.Elemental has also significantly improved its market presence, increasing trading liquidity after listing on the NASDAQ and positioning itself for inclusion in major indexes such as the Russell 2000, Russell 3000, and potentially the GDXJ ETF. These developments are expected to attract institutional investment.Future growth is driven by major projects such as the Timok copper deposit in Serbia and the pending Vizsla silver-gold royalty acquisition in Mexico. With strong exposure to both precious metals and energy-transition commodities, Elemental is well positioned to benefit from global demand trends while maintaining a low-risk, capital-efficient business model.View Elemental Royalty's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/elemental-altus-royaltiesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, we sat down with Johnson Matthey's U.S. President, Krista Johnson, to break down how the company is driving modern energy innovation. From emissions breakthroughs to platinum-powered clean tech, this conversation challenges the idea of energy transition and reframes it as something bigger: transformation.
Rachell Dumas, MSN, RN, is a nurse informaticist, health tech founder, and health advocate whose path into nursing began with a single anatomy class and whose journey into innovation began with nearly losing her life. After a four-year struggle through nine pregnancy losses, she finally welcomed a baby boy. Six months later, she woke up unable to see. When she arrived at the emergency department with acute vision loss and stroke symptoms, she was sent home with an antacid. As a neuro ICU nurse, she knew something was catastrophically wrong. She went to a second ED, got the CT scan, and eventually received a diagnosis: idiopathic intracranial hypertension. It took two brain surgeries to treat it. And in the space between dismissal and diagnosis, HEARD was born. HEARD is a health technology platform that gives patients the language, tools, and confidence to advocate for themselves in real time: translating medical jargon, documenting incidents, facilitating better conversations with providers, and connecting users to second opinions and legal support when needed. Rachell makes the case that nurses aren't just caregivers, they are uniquely positioned to see the gaps in healthcare and to build the solutions that close them.

Unlocking Cleaner Diesel: How Zelkam's Catalyst Technology is Transforming Fuel Efficiency and EmissionsIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Brian Livingston, President of Zelkam Solutions, to discuss a breakthrough technology that is quietly revolutionizing diesel fuel efficiency and emissions reduction. Drawing on Brian's deep expertise as a former Caterpillar engineer and his own entrepreneurial journey, the conversation offers a rare, in-depth look at how chemistry, innovation, and practical business sense can converge to create real-world impact for industries reliant on diesel engines. This episode serves as a vital resource for fleet operators and sustainability champions looking for immediate, science-backed ways to reduce overhead while advancing corporate decarbonization goals.The Science of Efficiency: Catalytic Cracking for Cleaner CombustionThe primary barrier to diesel efficiency often lies in the molecular structure of the fuel itself, which consists of long hydrocarbon chains that can be difficult to burn completely. Brian Livingston explains that Zelkam's technology addresses this through a non-invasive device—a copper tube filled with rare earth catalysts like iron, rubidium, and strontium—that threads directly into a diesel fuel line. As fuel passes through, it undergoes "catalytic cracking," a process that breaks these long chains into shorter ones that require less energy to ignite and burn more thoroughly. This isn't "snake oil" or magic; it is a well-understood chemical principle applied to the fuel-delivery stage to ensure that more of every gallon is converted into motion rather than waste, soot, and particulate matter.For heavy-use industries like trucking and mining, the financial implications of this 5–7% improvement in fuel economy are massive. In the United States alone, the trucking industry consumes approximately 42 billion gallons of diesel annually; even a modest 4% savings across the board would eliminate nearly 17 million tons of CO₂ emissions each year. In the mining sector, where a single site might consume millions of gallons, implementing this catalyst can result in savings of up to $2 million annually. Because the ROI is typically realized within a year, the technology offers a rare "win-win" for operations managers who need to justify sustainability initiatives through clear, bottom-line financial results.Despite the compelling data, the largest hurdle remains a lack of industry awareness, as many fleet owners are traditionally conditioned to look for aerodynamic fixes or engine overhauls rather than chemical optimizations. Brian emphasizes that education and direct pilot testing are the best ways to overcome this skepticism. By utilizing online calculators to estimate potential savings and emissions avoided, organizations can build a data-driven business case for internal stakeholders. Moving forward, the broad applicability of this technology across maritime, rail, and stationary power generation suggests that cleaner diesel is not just a transitionary goal, but an immediate reality for those willing to look beyond mainstream engine modifications.About Brian LivingstonBrian Livingston is the President of Zelkam Solutions and a veteran chemical engineer with nearly two decades of experience at Caterpillar.

The Emotional Recession: Why Emotions Are the Intelligence We Were Told to Ignore | Joshua Freedman . What does it take to move beyond emotional intelligence into emotional wisdom?
Linda Hill: Genius at Scale Linda Hill is the Wallace Brett Donham Professor of Business Administration and Faculty Chair of the Leadership Initiative at Harvard Business School. Globally recognized as a top leadership and innovation expert, Linda has been named by Thinkers50 as one of the world's top five management thinkers. She is the co-author, along with Emily Tedards and Jason Wild, of Genius at Scale: How Great Leaders Drive Innovation (Amazon, Bookshop)* We all want to think of ourselves as innovative, but it's often not easy to know exactly what that means in practice. In this conversation, Linda and I explore what her research shows that leaders do to drive innovation successfully – and how each of us can get just a bit better. Key Points Rather than coming up with a vision and asking people to follow it, innovation is about creating the culture and capabilities to create the future together. Innovation leadership shows up in three ways within organizations: the Architects, the Bridge Builders, and the Catalysts. Instead of setting the stage for themselves, innovative leaders set the stage for others. Often, we view horizontal relationships through the lens of organizational politics. The most effective innovation leaders view these relationships as leadership opportunities. Traditional team structures are a starting point, but not an ending point. Leaders at Mastercard, Pfizer, and Cleveland Clinic all brought in team members from both inside and outside the organization. Rather than thinking about a decision as final, it's helpful for innovation leaders to frame it as a “working hypothesis.” Resources Mentioned Genius at Scale: How Great Leaders Drive Innovation by Linda Hill, Emily Tedards, and Jason Wild (Amazon, Bookshop)* Interview Notes Download my interview notes in PDF format (free membership required).

The ability of an organization to innovate over and over again, for the long term, depends on leadership structure, culture, and systems. That's according to Harvard Business School professor Linda Hill, who has spent years researching the true drivers of innovation, taking lessons from the world's most successful companies. She explains why today's leaders need to shift from the focus on decision-making and producing to creating the conditions for collaboration, experimentation, and smart decision-making across teams, silos, and wider ecosystems. She shares examples from Mastercard, Pixar, and more and outlines some newly defined ways of looking at leadership roles: as Architects, Bridgers, and Catalysts. Hill's new book is Genius at Scale: How Great Leaders Drive Innovation.
