Big Think: Are Leaders Born or Made?

I really, REALLY love the idea around Big Think. Instant access to expert opinions and some of the most thoughtful insights to have existed. We can record, document and share the strongest beliefs of the most incredibly intelligent people in the world. Truly a profound idea.

One of the best videos I’ve seen so far is that of Rosabeth Moss Kanter, a professor from Havard Business School. She believes eveyone has the potential to become great leaders, but it depends upon their access to intellectual power, as well as the constraint of a top-down model of an heirarchal society.

I also believe that our culture thrives upon the values that are provided in sports. And with encouragement and support, leaders are born, made and made great.

And now, with the power of the internet, we can capture the ideas and thoughts of our world’s leaders through Big Think.

So how do you get on there? You pay at least $20,000. Then you have to convice the Web site that you are an expert in a field. Sounds easy, right?
