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.
Theory and Practice: Gone Wrong
Theory is when you know how everything works. Practice is when you make everything work.
When we combine theory and practice, nothing works and
we have no idea why.
A quote from one of my English students who works for an IT company.
