Leaders & Futures
Welcome… to Leaders and Futures! This podcast is about leading as futures emerge, are yet to be realized, or plainly…need to be reimagined. Someone has said that “The best way to predict the future is to create it.” Although it’s impossible to predict the future, one thing is certain: You must lead in it! It’s time to think differently about leading. Join us!

Dr Lugo and Chief Vásquez discuss the relationship between purpose and policy in organizational leadership. They explored how organizations need both clear policies to guide operations and a strong sense of purpose to drive meaningful outcomes. Chief shares examples from his military experience where following purpose sometimes required bending or breaking policies, while Dr Lugo emphasizes that effective organizations balance clear guidelines with the flexibility to make exceptions when necessary.
