_Oh by the way

I am truly glad to be here and honored to have this special spot at the front of all this. I wanted to call out a couple of really important pieces before you start your journey through this wonderful handbook

Firstly, Sybille and Matthias have done an amazing job over the years to be able to bring it all together in this work of art. Maybe some will one day call it a masterpiece. Not only to call out that there is a way to do this crazy stuff (and underlined by hard science), but to show a step-by-step description that will allow anyone to reproduce the power within the idea (on the spot and in the room). That’s pretty darn unique and almost unheard of out there. So congratulations.

Secondly, there is a passion deep inside of me about that power of the idea. To allow every single team in every organization around the world to freely articulate who they are, why they are here, where they want to go together, and what they are willing to give for one another for that better future to come true. That’s pretty amazing and definitely rare in the real world today. Self think, self express, self determine, self fulfill. Right on

Thirdly, for those infinitely challenged by what’s going on every day, faster, and more confusing than ever before, this handbook will show you how to break out of that crazy cycle we call the “Vortex”. You will find a better quality in everything you do thereafter. Stronger, deeper, richer, and more fulfilled than before. Don’t believe me, just try it with your friends one time. Better yet, try it with those that you don’t like so much, just one time. You’ll see

Fourthly, the courage to go Beyond all that has come before you is a baseline of what has defined progress for all humankind since the dawn of time. Connect with just one friend and your likelihood of making that step goes up astronomically. And that friendship gives you the strength to carry on no matter how much adversity is trying to hold you back. So believe in yourself, your friends around you, the common purpose of all you strive for, and your ability to make it so together. That better future will now unfold before you. Pretty cool

And lastly, going Beyond Leadership means to finally leave the old Leader / Follower paradigm behind us. So happy I am that the modern reality of the digital age has put us in a spot where that paradigm has finally met its match. And the new paradigm, and those of you that embrace it, will free us to go places we never even imagined possible

So have the courage to go Beyond. Everything
