Phil and I remember being younger managers in large multinationals (IBM for me) back in the 90鈥瞫, and in my case, the 80鈥瞫. We were sent to a variety of short training courses, and we honestly can鈥檛 say that we remember anything they tried to teach us. Except for one lesson. In fact, it was so powerful that we never forgot it. In many ways, you can say it shaped much of Phil鈥檚 career and eventually led both of us to work with Professor Henry Mintzberg in management development.

On a tort de consid茅rer comme des h茅ros les m茅decins qui travaillent en zones de conflits, estime la nouvelle dirigeante de M茅decins sans fronti猫res (MSF), la Qu茅b茅coise Joanne Liu, de l鈥檋么pital Sainte-Justine. Le v茅ritable courage est ailleurs, selon elle, mais il ne nous int茅resse pas assez.
