When long- serving corporate leaders depart, they and their colleagues often want them to pass along as much information as possible to the next generation of employees. Ed Catmull who long held the top- spot at Pixar, served a lesson in how this wisdom can best be passed on. He ensured that on his last working day, all of the management training sessions would be as inclusive as possible. The talks were intimate, so it touched upon every one. Instead of merely answering questions that were posed to him, he would ask questions. This showed a sense of inquisitiveness till the last. Such show of undiminished curiosity is widely appreciated. Space must be created for others to air their views as well.
