Drawing on insights from historical thinking, this lecture will provide a series of concepts and tools for leaders to implement as they strive to think strategically, rather than tactically. The lecture will offer concrete methods and examples of how successful leaders have looked beyond the crises of the moment to push their organizations toward bigger and more important goals.
