Avot and leadership: practical applications for ancient advice

I am always pleased so see people taking the ancient sayings in Pirkei Avot and applying them to our current lives and lifestyles. That's why I was happy to read Randi Braun's post in the Jewish Journal, "What Does Leading With Heart Look Like in Modern Life?This piece looks at Rabban Yochanan ben Zakkai's question to his five top talmidim (Avot 2:13): "what is the good path that a person should stick to?", together with their various answers. Rather than just discuss the "winning" answer, the author considers the virtues of all five within the context of leadership and making an impact on others.
