Vision: The Most Critical Quality for Leading through Change
Bates
"Organizations are facing uncertainty in the year ahead with political, regulatory and socio-economic changes. What kind of leadership is required to keep businesses moving forward through change? Our firm's research and data from over 1,200 global executives reveals that in times of change and challenge, one of the most important, but lowest rated qualities of leaders is Vision. These are among the facets of Executive Presence proven to enable leaders to engage, align, inspire, and drive execution. We can discuss how highly visionary leadership is correlated with success in building credibility and winning followership, and how demonstrating Vision goes beyond the ability to see trends, but to rally others around a credible vision of the future."
Bates is author of four best-selling business books: Speak Like a CEO: Secrets for Commanding Attention and Getting Results (2005), Motivate Like a CEO: Communicate Your Strategic Vision and Inspire People to Act (2008), Discover Your CEO Brand: Secrets to Embracing and Maximizing Your Unique Value as a Leader (2011), and All the Leader You Can Be: The Science of Achieving Extraordinary Executive Presence (2016).

The (Not So) Difficult Role of Board Members
Nonprofit Center,
"Board members either don't recognize or don't act with the knowledge that they, not the executive director, are at the top of the organizational chart. They don't realize that they have the responsibility not only to determine how dollars are spent, but also to ensure that those dollars are spent rationally and proportionately to the work, mission and overall budget of the organization. Considering that many board members do something quite similar in their daily lives in managing professional or personal budgets and making spending decisions, this task shouldn't be so difficult."
Otten is available to discuss nonprofits, leadership, governance, and management. She has over 30 years of experience as a consultant and instructor for nonprofits, and is known for her independent thinking and candid responses.

The Importance of Data in
X by 2, LLC
It's important for healthcare payers and providers to understand and utilize the right data analytics and technology strategies. Says Haider: "In today's ultra-competitive health insurance landscape, the quality of one's data is akin to an information-based competitive advantage. That's because it's not just the data itself that provides actionable and profitable insights, it's also all the other ancillary costs embedded in poor data quality in an insurer."
Haider's work has been published in Health Data Management, Health IT Outcomes, and

Modernizing Health Insurance IT
X by 2, LLC
When planning and implementing core insurance systems and strategic business applications, don't always take the easy route. Says Packer: "To fight the cultural and political instincts to take the easier modernization road, remember to keep the opposite in mind, at least as a mental exercise. For many insurers, that would mean honestly assessing how some of the simple yet effective tools in the IT toolbox are actually practiced. Good examples of this are IT disciplines like enterprise architecture and agile software development."
Packer's most recent work, "The Key to Modernization? Do the Opposite," was published in Insurance Technology Association Pro; he has also been published in

- THE PRESIDENT AND PRESS FREEDOM: MAKING THE CASE FOR OPEN ACCESS TO GOVERNMENT INFORMATION. When it comes to covering government officials, there's one person who holds the key to access: The communications officer. Press secretaries and communications officers are the gatekeepers to their principals. Sometimes, they monitor interviews; they also may select those who will be handed a story. Access control isn't new, but the manner and tone in which it's being carried out in today's
White House is different. http://bit.ly/2mZJa7B
