Having worked at a few places, in various roles, having seen different dimensions of the design practice. Some stuff inherited, others evolved. Things developed and occasionally invented.

Now 'Mid-career', as they call it. But don't let that fool you, this isn’t half time! Just a stage in the thinking.

Over time the meaning of leadership formed it’s signature, calibrating as a value 'system'. Where all factors as a holistic set are held together in balance.

Each with their unique characteristics, potential to generate value and abilities to transform. All together a reference point for portfolio of work and talent.

No recipe for success, nor an universal truth of any kind.
