Smart people instintictively understand the danger of endtrusting our future to self-serving leaders who use our institutions whether in the corporate or social sectores to advance their own interests.

If we allow the celebrity rock-star model of leadership to triumph,we will see the decline of corporations and institutions of all types. The twentieth century was a century of greatness, but we face the very real prespect that the next century will see very few enduring great institutions.
