A small business can apply the concept of infinite-minded leadership from The Infinite Game to ensure long-term success by adopting a visionary mindset.

Question was asked on:
Due to the pressure to value skills over mindset, finite minded leaders are too often promoted as CEOs when the role actually demands a visionary, infinite-minded leader. The CEO plays the role of a Chief Vision Officer who protects the vision, communicates the Just Cause, and ensures that C-level executive actions align with it. The Chief Vision officer is the keeper who focuses on the infinite horizon while the COO & CFO's are Operators who focus on the business plan. The best-run organizations have a partnership between these two complementary skillsets. The very operational skills and finite focus that makes people excel as CFO's make them ill-suited to being CEO.
