Chapter 1 The GLF. Sharing Global Leadership Experience


The GLF is a unique example of turning a global network into a pragmatic and useful organization, and a very good example of how to make a vision a reality. It benefits from strong, charismatic leadership, and is an example of successful process innovation. The result is a lean organization and operational efficiency. It is a low-key organization, working largely behind the scenes, which means a big challenge for "silent marketing".

The important factors are vision, strong leadership [human factor], trust [human behavior and environmental factor], concept, mission, planning, and execution.

*Note: the concept is intrinsically present in the minds of GLF management which acts accordingly, but does not translate into rationalization of the awareness analysis as a result of the mismatch between the usual vocabulary of the management and the defined topic-list for the generic factor Concept. However, the concept is strongly recognised by the assessment group as an important generic factor in this case study.
