Seasoned business leaders may glance at our Rules and think, “I’m past that.” But here’s the truth: the basics are where real advantage lives—if you know how to apply them better than anyone else.
The “Add Your Insight” feature turns each Rule into a living archive of experience, collecting the sharpest lessons and real-world tactics from peers who’ve been in the fight. Your contribution doesn’t just add to the conversation—it sharpens the thinking for every leader who follows.
The real value isn’t always the Rule—it’s the real-world stories behind it.
The next generation of leaders needs more than surface advice. They need guidance that’s been pressure-tested. Also, your colleagues, who are on the same path and at a similar stage of business, would like to feel like they’re not alone—this is where you come in.
Over time, we hope to see dozens of real-world short stories about “how this rule changed my company” or testimonials about the books on our list. In the coming years, this becomes the true value of The Institute.
What seems obvious to you today might be the spark that changes someone else’s path tomorrow.
The Institute is built to help you pass it on—efficiently, purposefully, and with lasting impact.
Our members who choose to contribute can:
- Help refine the Rules—even add new rules
- Offer book recommendations that shaped their thinking
- Give very brief written or recorded experiences and lessons about any given rule
- Share wisdom that moves the needle
Here’s the guilt trip…
Maybe a little bit ego. Maybe a little bit legacy. But mostly, it’s about responsibility. If you’ve built something real, we want you in the room. You don’t have to mentor one-on-one. You don’t need to build a course. You just need to step up and share what made a difference.
The insight you share might be the turning point someone else is waiting for.
