Don't let a perfectly good crisis go to waste
Rahm Emanuel, the soon-to-be White House chief of staff, recently suggested the U.S. government should be prepared to exploit the current economic crisis to try things that might have seemed impossible before. "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste," he said. Wharton Business School Professor Stew Friedman says the same principle applies in the personal lives of business leaders, as well. "More and more people are committed to finding new and meaningful ways to clarify what matters most, respect the ones about whom they care deeply in the different parts of their lives, and experiment with creative ways to enrich lives," he writes.
