What the All Blacks (New Zealand national rugby team) can teach us about the business of life.
Pride and Humanity - Never be too big to do the small things. Balance pride in performance and humility before the magnitude of the task.
Adapt - when you're on top of your game, change your game.

Pass The Ball - Leaders create leaders by passing on responsibility, creating ownership, accountability, and trust.
Stay True to Your Values - Leaders lead their own life and others follow.
Storytelling - Use stories to help people understand what they stand for and why.
Rituals - Rituals tell your story, involve your people, and create a legacy.
Collective Character - Importance of culture -> results.
Integrity - Culture of honesty, authenticity, and safe conflict.
Bringing People Together - Around a common purpose (why).
Leaders are Learners - Excellence is a process of evolution and cumulative learning, of incremental improvement.
