We asked Cliff Young, Associate Dean in the Dean's Office at UC Denver Business School about managing for sustainability. "The history of managing for sustainability was actually somewhat industry driven." The first of these classes started back in 2007-08 and has grown to where UC Denver currently has 12 different classes teaching sustainability and three specializations, internally here at the business school. They're all graduate specializations, so if a student takes any four of these classes, that student gets a specialization either in their MBA or a Masters of Science & Management. Or if the student took three classes associated with the Masters of Science & Marketing you would get a specialization and with that you can get a Certificate in Sustainability. Cliff said, "The most recent accomplishment at UC Denver is bringing Graham Russell on board as the Ambassador for Managing for Sustainability." Larry has known Graham Russell for a number of years, "and he has done some phenomenal work in this area - it's really neat to see you with this great organization, but how did you get involved and what's your role?" Graham tells us when he was running CORE (the sustainable business association - Denver), he was privileged to get to know the UC Denver faculty. Graham left CORE in 2010 and was invited to teach here at UC Denver and has taught two or three courses over the past few years. He's also been instrumental in building relationships between the business school and the local business community. Graham also chairs the Advisory Council on Sustainability, and they've been very successful in building relationships with many of the larger companies in this part of the world.

Transformational Leadership in a Global Economy 1527_ 4/7/14 - Larry and Pat attended the high-profile ACG Denver Rocky Mountain Corporate Growth Conference and talked to a number of attendees about the business timing in the marketplace today. Larry recorded the keynote address General Stanley McChrystal. General Stanley McChrystal is widely admired for his hunger to know the truth, his courage to find it, and his humility to listen to those around him. Even as the commanding officer of all U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan, he stationed himself forward and frequently went on patrols with his troops to experience their challenges firsthand. A one-of-a-kind commander with a remarkable record of achievement, General Stan McChrystal is widely praised for creating a revolution in warfare that fused intelligence and operations. He is also known for developing and implementing the counter-insurgency strategy in Afghanistan and for creating a comprehensive counter-terrorism organization that revolutionized the way military agencies interact and operate.

Transformational Leadership in a Global Economy(Part two) 1528_ 4/7/14 - A one-of-a-kind commander with a remarkable record of achievement, General Stan McChrystal is widely praised for creating a revolution in warfare that fused intelligence and operations. He is also known for developing and implementing the counter-insurgency strategy in Afghanistan and for creating a comprehensive counter-terrorism organization that revolutionized the way military agencies interact and operate. A four-star general, he is the former commander of U.S. and international forces in Afghanistan and the former leader of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), which oversees the military’s most sensitive forces. His leadership of JSOC is credited with the 2003 capture of Saddam Hussein and the 2006 location and killing of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq. McChrystal, a former Green Beret, is known for his candor, innovative leadership, and going the distance. Called "one of America’s greatest warriors" by Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, few can speak about leadership, teamwork, and international affairs with as much insight as he can...Part two Listen...

After suffering a TBI, healing & sharing became his passion...

Back in 2006 Garrett Bussiere was a professional athlete. It was his first year playing pro ball with the St. Louis Cardinals and he ended up sustaining a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and that was actually the last game he played in - July of 2006. He had a head injury and that was the end of his career and a very trying time in his life. Garrett was both a professional athlete and simultaneously finishing his undergraduate degree at Berkeley. What he found after the injury when he returned to Berkeley was that he could no longer concentrate, he had difficulty with his classes and he saw a lot of his life diminish to the point where he had to join the Disabled Students Union to get some academic help to get him through. It was very difficult and Garrett said, "I just felt like there was this heavy weight placed on my shoulders that I was trying to alleviate. I had a mild traumatic brain injury that changed my life." From this point Garrett endured lingering symptoms and did what most people with this injury do - he went to specialists, you see neurologists, neuropsychologists, brain scans, he did all of it. But, "I wasn't getting good answers. I was told I needed this medication or that medication and rest." For Garrett, he just couldn't swallow the fact that at 20 years old he had to be on three different medications. He began exploring other options, things like nutritional neuroscience, exercise physiology, stress management and other options that related to enhancing cognition and expediting the rate of recovery. Garrett went on to write a book, The Concussion Healing Solution, Clarity Amid the Confusion. Today, Garrett is the Marketing & Research Manager at, CereScan Corp...

"I was raised with traditional stories of leadership: Robert E. Lee, John Buford at Gettysburg. And I also was raised with personal examples of leadership. And I was raised to believe that soldiers were strong and wise and brave and faithful; they didn't lie, cheat, steal or abandon their comrades. And I still believe real leaders are like that. But in my first 25 years of career, I had a bunch of different experiences." After McChrystal graduated from West Point, he was commissioned as an infantry officer, and spent much of his career commanding special operations and airborne infantry units. During the Persian Gulf War, McChrystal served in a Joint Special Operations Task Force and later commanded the 75th Ranger Regiment. He completed year-long fellowships at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government in 1997 and in 2000 at the Council on Foreign Relations. In 2002, he was appointed chief of staff of military operations in Afghanistan. Two years later, McChrystal was selected to deliver nationally televised Pentagon briefings about military operations in Iraq. From 2003 to 2008, McChrystal commanded JSOC and was responsible for leading the nation’s deployed military counter-terrorism efforts around the globe. He assumed command of all International Forces in Afghanistan in June 2009. President Obama’s order for an additional 30,000 troops to Afghanistan was based on McChrystal’s assessment of the war there. McChrystal retired from the military in August 2010.

The thought that the consulting world is ripe for disruption has been floated before – and the change is happening in many parts of the industry. The common complaints about consulting suggest the direction that the industry is moving: consultants drop a thick report on the table that never gets read; their solutions generate additional problems; they look at questions or problems too narrowly to have a sustainable business impact. The McChrystal Group is a niche consulting firm that partners with companies going through the same change process that we experienced during a decade of combat. "We’re working with leaders who acknowledge that in today’s environment, things simply move too fast for one-off solutions to keep pace." CrossLead (McChrystal Group) is a leadership philosophy that empowers organizations to achieve beyond optimal results through constant adaptation. We believe that the world has changed. We believe that the hierarchies that dominated the 20th century will not suffice in the information age. We live in a networked, fast-paced era. Organizations must embrace a fundamental shift from efficiency to adaptability.. "I came to believe that a leader isn't good because they're right; they're good because they're willing to learn and to trust. This isn't easy stuff. And it isn't always fair. You can get knocked down, and it hurts and it leaves scars. But if you're a leader, the people you've counted on will help you up. And if you're a leader, the people who count on you need you on your feet." Stan McChrystal
