Circumstances that require pivoting and adaptation are represented by the maze. The vines, leaves and flowers represent how ideas and knowledge can grow in the process of finding the path that works. That path that works is represented by the dotted line and how each step towards successfully adapting can lead to fertile growth with sometimes wholly unexpected, successful outcomes by utilizing measured approaches along the way. Leaders often travel these unexpected paths and their successful decisions have an impact on so many: on their workforces, communities, and personal lives. The flowers represent those leading as well as those impacted—the progression of the flowers' complexity from top to bottom representing growth and awareness. Having the courage and will to face the unexpected head on is complex but the results can harness new understanding and growth for future, successful outcomes.
