Wandering Into Wisdom

This blog chronicles the knowledge, insight and wisdom I encounter every day as a leadership consultant, executive coach, educator, father, friend and citizen. This site is dedicated to my father, Louis (Jack) Laughlin, who passed on to me an appreciation for wisdom. A special thanks to my friend Isaac Cheifetz, a businessman and journalist, who helped me understand the value of blogs and encouraged me to write one.

There’s an old adage that those who can’t do, teach. This insult to teachers might actually contain a pearl of wisdom. People gifted in an endeavor may never develop the learning skills and strategies necessary to teach as well as someone who had to struggle.
