Feedback for the HBR article from executives

I am delighted that we are continously receiving an excellent feedback for our article “To be a Better Leader, Give up Authority”, published in December 2009 issue of Harvard Business Review. Examples of the feedback received from executives include:

 “I wanted to thank you as well as complement you on the article written for HBR, December edition. You crystallized a nontraditional approach that has ignited an avalanche of new ideas that I am excited to introduce to my department.  I am encouraged as well as energized to engage (EEE) the department in taking our level of service to new heights. I am grateful for the wisdom shared and hope to be able to share positive results with you in future communication, thank you.” (M.McK, Vice President)

 “I have now managed to read your HBR article via the link you provided and I’d like to congratulate you on a wonderful story, succinctly written”. (A.M., Director)

I recently read your article in Harvard Business Review and found it interesting. I could not agree more that passing authority down the chain of command increases the effectiveness of decisions. It takes a smart person to know they need help”. (J.G., Sales Executive)

“ I read your article in the Harvard Business Review, and wanted to say that I truly enjoyed it and looking forward to read other articles you may have related to this subject. Once again, well done”. (R.H., World Wide Director)

I commend you and your colleagues on a thought provoking article on leadership in the latest issue of HBR. As Associate Editor of OD Journal, I wonder if you and your colleagues would be interested in expanding your thoughts and submitting a 28-32 page double spaced article to OD. As a quarterly journal published by Elsevier, we are looking for seminal works that will provoke critical thinking by practicing professionals and MBA students“.  (J.S. Associate Editor)
