Flow and Creativity, Leadership and Management, Science and Best Practices are increasingly interrelated areas of our daily lives, of our heightened interest and awareness and the subject of ever increasing scholarly attention, focus and research. So we have decided to use the Blog platform of Flowleadership.org to collect and re-post some of the most interesting such news, ideas and concepts.
