A parable that contrasts the leadership styles of two CEOs: one operating in the old business paradigm; the other embracing the new business paradigm, in which success is inextricably tied to the success of business stakeholders. It is based on a new, proactive business model that works better in the 21st century than the old-world, protectionist, risk management formula, because it turns business networks into aligned and consensual communities that get things done faster and better. It balances traditional defensive, risk management practices with new, offensive, Trust Enablement approaches to business.
