In 2010, on a way to the National Leadership meeting of the Institute of Electrical Electronics Engineers (IEEE), USA, as the Chair of GOLD Boston Chapter of IEEE, at the rest area on the highway, I watched some ants, and wrote this piece for Harvard Business Review https://hbr.org/2010/10/business-lessons-from-the-ants .
On Monday, we will begin the next edition of Tekedia Mini-MBA. We will learn from the ants and picked some attributes on why in the Igbo Nation, the elders will say “the anthills are not built by the elephants, but by the collective efforts of the little ants”. Yes, ants offer so many lessons in the leadership playbook.
Every business must have a strategic mission to fix the friction it was established for in the market. Finding a mechanism to motivate people to achieve bigger things is foundational to that call. The ants teach us how to work as a team to achieve more than the sum of our individual parts.
