Summary
- Jerry Cranus is the CEO of the Levinson Institute and have been since 1990. His route towards getting to know Elliot Jackson was circuitous. He says his interest has always been in systems. In 1990 he decided to refocus the Institute on the leadership system.
- Paul Tillich: I have two photographs of myself with two of the three most important mentors in my life. The first is with Harry Levinson. Levinson created what is generally accepted modern knowledge about enlightened leadership. But their relationship gradually became more and more strained.
- At the core of what we do and my book, Accountability Leadership, is 90% Elliot Jacks. He is a man of brilliance that's unparalleled in the field of leadership. It's about both keeping your word, no surprises, and earning your keep.
- The next area in which Elliott left people to their own devices is the basis for effectiveness appraisal. The basic construct that we've ended up with in the last three or four years has just been very powerful. Clients are now beginning to use it as a basis for differential compensation.
- The final area in which I believe we've made great progress has been in the development of software. We're now working on a third generation of what I think will be the be all and the end all, and we're planning to build it as a product.
- Three years ago, Dennis Turkat, the CEO of Algoma Steel, engaged the Levinson Institute to assess his company, assess its talent and completely change its culture. With the Honeywell model, organizations that need to make rapid, dramatic changes in structure and personnel can make significant, lasting and enduring change.
