We chose Levinson and Co. to help us transform Algoma Steel because of its strong history in the areas of leadership and organizational development. |
We recognized that the firm had been in this business for over 40 years, dealing with all manner of complex business enterprises in some of the world’s largest and most complex organizations. Understanding this background, I felt comfortable that Levinson not only understood the fundamentals of business systems, but also their cultural and sovereign constraints—having operated with these companies in the U.S, Canada, South and Central America, Europe, and Japan. During this 40-year period, Levinson and Co. has built a substantial knowledge bank around the “business enterprise” through its work with numerous multinational companies, ranging from 1,000 employees to well over 300,000 employees. More than several of the top 100 U.S.-based companies have sought Levinson and Co.’s teachings and wise counsel. I felt if it was good enough for them, it was good enough for my company! Read More

Dr. Joe Privott, the founding CEO of Novus International, gave the following talk during the company’s June 2016 twenty-fifth anniversary celebration. Novus, a scientifically oriented, feed-ingredients spinoff of Monsanto, has been driven since its inception by the genuine purpose to help feed the world affordable food. Moreover, both its mission and business results are remarkably successful by almost any metric. Novus International (and Monsanto before it) has had a longstanding relationship with The Levinson Institute and its leadership development programs, dating back to the early 1980s. During those years, Dr. Privott attended two of Levinson’s weeklong seminars, On Leadership and Modern Organization (now called Strategic Organization), where he was deeply impressed with Dr. Harry Levinson’s concept of the psychological contract and Dr. Elliott Jaques’s Requisite Organization system of accountability leadership. Dr. Privott explains in his talk how he embedded many of these concepts and applications to serve as the foundation for Novus International’s past—and future—successes. Dr. Gerry Kraines, the current CEO of Levinson and Co., continues to work with Novus International to sustain and enhance the Novus Management System.
