If you’re asked to think of a scarce resource, does your mind immediately turn to forests, water, energy, or food supplies?

Leadership has been researched extensively and leadership gurus abound – each has something important to say. All the elements of leadership are known, but they’re fragmented and scattered among a clutter of myths, anecdotes, and beliefs. These divergent theories are often contradictory: and one leadership approach won’t work in all situations, and there is little guidance on how to select the right theory for any specific situation.

The Unified Theory is based on observation of the world – both the real world of today and the studied world of yesterday.
