Hat tip and thanks to David Zinger for pointing us at this video. Bear with it: I found the first thirty seconds disturbingly misogynistic: especially the first scene outside the vegetable store, and I was going to stop watching it, as his aggression seems particularly levelled at women and that was creepy. But, the punchline at the end is cool and I THINK makes the creepy bits understandable and acceptable (do contradict me if you think not, though: I'm in two minds).

Leader learning point? Well, if there has to be one, it's look to turn a threat or problem into an opportunity. But, honestly, it's just a bit of fun to help re-energize you with the power of surprise.

When someone who lacks expertise exercises undue control over your expertise, you feel micromanaged. By contrast, if someone who has expertise, comes alongside you to support and assist you to do your job better, you feel mentored.

World's Top 30 Leadership GurusThanks for your vote...
If you voted in the World Leadership Gurus Top 30, the Hub's founder, Phil Dourado, came 14th this year (2012), up three places from 17th last year. The organisers say it is "because of the originality and impact of your work" that Phil was put in the Top 30 in the first place. And that means this Hub and the award-winning corporate versions we run for large companies. For more on how a private corporate version of The Hub works, email: phildourado@theleadershiphub.com
