I grew up in a classic, small New England town. My father's business and his father's before him, were started and established in and around Boston. 

Thus, I grew up within a system of family businesses, which in turn were part of a greater community and were participants in the common good.  

With globalization, business leaders, organizations and opportunities have become part of a system that reaches far beyond the boundaries of a local community. I have experienced this first-hand having established AGR in London over 20 years ago.

Today any organization, big or small, is part of a complex system whether we like it or not. 

I happen to embrace complexity, though I have developed an ever-greater appreciation for simplicity. One informs the other.

AGR has been responding to changing environments and market needs since its founding. And helping others do the same. 

Are you responding — or reacting — to the complexity around you?
