We are back with our fan favorite Oscar movie month. During the month of February each year, we look at Oscar-winning Best Pictures and consider the leadership lessons we glean from our viewing. This month we look at three: No Country for Old Men, The Sting and The Last Emperor. In this episode of 12 O’Clock High, a podcast on business leadership, Richard Lummis and I take at the 2007 Best Picture winning film, No Country for Old Men. Some of the highlights were: ·     One of the key themes of the movie is the tension between  destiny and self-determination;·     What have been the changes in law enforcement in the former wild west?·     What does it mean to enforce laws on the former frontier?·     Crime has changed and become more sophisticated. The regulator and enforcers must also change; and·     What happens when a hero, or business leader grows old?
