I had the privilege of being a contributor to a book that was created from an idea Michael Bungay Stanier had, author of Do More Great Work. The idea of the book came from the premise that you can create great work—work that matters, that you care about, that makes a difference. His “great work” became a cause for which 62 contributors would share their ideas about great work. The book is called “End Malaria” and $10 —the cost of a mosquito net—going toward ending malaria.
I love the idea of focusing on a project and making it your “great work”. I shared how we’re doing that with learning at Adobe—through technology, relationships and ourselves. Check it out. I hope you’re inspired as I am by Michael’s idea and how you can turn any idea into not only a reality, but a cause. We are all great leaders with great ideas that can make a difference.
