Understand Stakeholder Symmetry: Find The Appropriate Balance

Followers Who Tell The Truth, And Leaders Who Listen To It, Are An Unbeatable Combination.

Encourage Dissent: Leaders Should Have Associates Who Have Contrary Views, Who Are Devil's Advocates, "variance Sensors" Who Can Tell Them The Difference Between What Is Expected And What Is Really Happening, Between What They Want To Hear And What They Need To Hear. There Are Too Many Naked Emperors Running Around Today.

Great Things Are Accomplished By Talented People Who Believe They Will Accomplish Them.

It Is The Capacity To Develop And Improve Their Skills That Distinguishes Leaders From Followers.

People Who Cannot Invent And Reinvent Themselves Must Be Content With Borrowed Postures, Secondhand Ideas, Fitting In Instead Of Standing Out.
