This year sees the twentieth anniversary of the publication of Jim Collins bestseller Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't.
With over 4 million copies sold worldwide good to great became a management must-read. But what can we learn from it 20 years on?
Is it still relevant? Do its findings pan out in the 21st century?

Peter has a degree in Enterprise Architecture from the University of Antwerp and is described as a no-nonsense guy that sees the bigger picture immediately.
The book addresses a single question: can a good company become a great company (stock market performance, 5 times the average) and if so, how? Based on a five-year research project comparing companies that made the leap to those that didn’t, Good to Great shows that greatness is not primarily a function of circumstance but largely a matter of conscious choice, and discipline. ‘Good to Great’ discusses concepts like Level 5 Leadership; First Who, Then What (first get the right people on the bus, then figure out where to drive it); the Hedgehog Concept, and the Flywheel.

Can the state of establishing diversity in your business guarantee you some kind of edge, and if so, what?
Coming from the Latin verb "divertere", meaning to turn aside, the classic dictionary definition of diversity is the containment of many very different elements practice of quality. In recent years however, probably the first definition you will find on the internet is the inclusion or involvement of people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and of different genders, sexual orientations and abilities.
