I'm Clifton Buford, founder of Calumet & Co., a leadership formation firm. I write here in my own name.
This is where I think out loud, in my own voice and kept separate from the firm. Leadership is one thread. Faith, growth, the things I'm reading, and whatever else I'm working through are others. The views are mine.
I'm a certified coach through iPEC, and I've spent years leading teams under real pressure. That runs through a lot of what I write here, though not all of it.
If something here lands, the occasional note is the best way to keep reading.
