The Most Dangerous Leadership Myth Is That

Just As No Great Painting Has Ever Been Created By A Committee, No Great Vision Has Ever Emerged From The Herd.

Growing Other Leaders From The Ranks Isn't Just The Duty Of The Leader, It's An Obligation.

Organizations Have To Come To Grips With The Fact That Tests Of Adaptive Capability Aren't Always Pleasant. Learning Can Be A Powerful Emotional Event, And Organizations Have To Be Cognizant Of That. They Must Understand That Those Who Complete High-quality Executive Education Programs Are Going To See The Organization With Fresh Eyes After They Return. Those Who Re-enter The Workplace Filled With New Enthusiasm And New Ideas Often Find A Chilly Response On The Part Of Their Supervisors.

Leaders Must Earn The Trust Of Their Teams, Their Organizations, And Their Stakeholders Before Attempting To Engage Their Support.

In The Face Of Ambiguity, Uncertainty, And Conflicting Demands, Often Under Great Time Pressure, Leaders Must Make Decisions And Take Effective Actions To Assure The Survival And Success Of Their Organizations. This Is How Leaders Add Value To Their Organizations. They Lead Them To Success By Exercising Good Judgment, By Making Smart Calls When Especially Difficult And Complicated Decisions Simply Must Be Made, And Then Ensuring That They Are Well Executed.
