This document discusses the differences between low beam and high beam education leaders. Low beam leaders focus on short-term execution and replication of past programs. They invest in the present and do not consider trends or the future direction of the industry. High beam leaders use strategic vision and intelligence to interpret trends and predict how they will impact their members. They are willing to experiment and adapt quickly to changes. The document suggests high beam leaders serve their members best by staying attuned to the needs of the industry as a whole.
