| 8 | +I am in the middle of moving, so the next few posts might be on the shorter side |

| 12 | +These two words, "What" and "How", have been the most impactful words with me this year. They have changed how I look |
| 13 | +at, and move through, the world. In almost every human interaction, these are the most important tools that one can use, |
| 14 | +and they are just getting more valuable and important as the world continues on its digital path. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +Over the next few weeks, we'll see how "What" and "How" plays an important role in Organizational Leadership. They are the |
| 18 | +foundation of building a compelling organization, mission, and brand. We'll examine Simon Sinek's Golden Circle idea, |
| 19 | +expand on it with what we'll call Silver Rings. These drive the all important alignment across the organization. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +Next we'll examine the power of "What" and "How" in the tangentially related topic of persuasion or negotiation. While |
| 23 | +answering the Golden Circle questions, "What" and "How" play a vital role in the process of aligning perspectives to |
| 24 | +answer those questions themselves (wow, talk about idea Inception!). |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +After we explore how these words align and maintain an organization's alignment, we'll see how these words are the most |
| 28 | +important tools in a manager's toolbox. They can be used to find the best solution to any problem in a collaborative |
| 29 | +way. And they are a manager's go-to when coaching Strategic Thinking in their direct reports. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +To wrap up the mini-series, we'll examine the underlying themes in why these words are so impactful in these situations. |
| 33 | +Taking those themes, we'll see how we can apply them to improve our social lives and the quality of all of our |
| 34 | +relationships, not just the ones in a professional setting. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +How can two little words be so powerful? What is it about these words that make them applicable in so many different and |
| 38 | +seemingly unrelated areas? (Haha! Did you see what I did there?). Let's continue forward together and find out. |
