| Summary: | This case focuses on the Young Guru Academy (YGA), a non-profit organization based in Istanbul, Turkey, that emphasizes the importance of building "leaders with selfless confidence" and establishing a "high trust" culture for these pathfinders to thrive as a model to achieve long-term and sustainable social innovation. The organization's underlying cultural philosophy is based upon a June 2005 Harvard Business Review article titled "Competent Jerks, Lovable Fools, and the Formation of Social Networks," written by Tiziana Casciaro and Miguel Sousa Lobo, and takes the position that individuals who are most effective in inspiring positive change are often those who have both high levels of traditional business competencies and a high degree of socially-oriented skills--or, in short, "double-winged" leaders. |
