Collaboration, Open Solutions, and Innovation (COSI) are key strategies for individuals and organizations to adopt as America strives to thrive in the 21st century global operating environment.

Open Leadership, Open Communities, Open Source, Open Standards, Open Access, Open Information, Open … As I have said before, we are in the midst of the 'Age of Open Revolution'.
I recently ran across several new good books and articles about Leadership in the 21st century – "Open Leadership " by Charlene Li; "What Has Happened to Leadership?" by Dr. Tony Beam; and "Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything" by Don Tapscott and A. Williams. The first is focused on what it means to provide Open Leadership; the second is an article on the moral dimensions of leadership from a Christian perspective; and the third provides examples of leading organizations that are in the process of implementing business strategies of global collaboration and open solutions to succeed in this new millennium.
