Repetitive processes kill machinery and the human spirit in equal measure, squashing innovation and the ability to problem solve.

Set against the rugged beauty of a Southern ranch, “Searching for the Elephant’ is a powerful drama that follows Jason Bowden, struggling with addiction, as he reconnects with his estranged Vietnam‑veteran grandfather, Griff, who’s facing the challenges of PTSD. Jason is facing threats from debt collectors, which are compounded by family tension. Forced by the tough love of his stepmother to live on Griff’s Southern ranch for a year, it is an intense, raw, and authentic portrayal of the challenges faced not just by Jason and Griff but also by those who love them. Perhaps surprisingly, the leadership lessons for individuals and organizations are also very strong.
