Certainly a leader needs a clear vision of the organization and where it is going, but a vision is of little value unless it is shared in a way so as to generate enthusiasm and commitment. Leadership and communication are inseparable.

It's not meant to be taken seriously, we're, honestly, for the most part, just trying to have fun with it.

If there's such thing as too many plants or too much plants, I've not seen it, i certainly haven't penalized it.

You want to be able to start at the front of the room where the speaker is and have the eyes drawn back through the room, so you might have an interesting bookcase on the back wall. You've got art on the left and right walls. You've got a nice lamp. You've got plants. Those are the elements that tend to work.

But if you don't even want to do that, there are ways to achieve the same objective, which is to have color and character and personality in the room, what you want to avoid is the extreme end of the scale, which is the hostage video — the blank wall, usually shot from the wrong angle.

Sometimes there's too much of an emphasis on books in general. You can create a good room with books ; you can create a good room without books, but If you go books, there are things we feel are must avoids.

A lot of people try to rely in my opinion too much on natural lighting. It just ends up being washed out, people who are better at it, you'll actually see have windows pretty carefully muted.
