Guiding Values

Sagamore CEO Jay Hein was privileged to be mentored by Bob Buford when Sagamore was launched.  Renowned management consultant Peter Drucker was mentoring Bob himself at the same time.  Bob’s Top 10 Values continue to guide the Sagamore Network and its many streams of innovative ideas into action.

  1. Build on islands of health and strength
  2. Work only with the receptive and only on what’s trying to happen
  3. Go big or go home. Focus; don’t do dribs and drabs
  4. Who is the customer? What does the customer value? What is our business?
  5. Giving is not a result – changed lives are
  6. The fruit of our work grows on other people’s trees
  7. The entrepreneurial leader is where the leverage begins
  8. The essential ingredient for success is a steady stream of innovation
  9. It’s your job to release and direct energy, not to supply it
  10. Structure follows strategy, and strategy begins with clear desired outcomes
