I have been a student of leadership for over 40 years and many things have changed. However, the core issues of valuing relationships as much as results is always on the top of the list. Being able to inspire others and build trust is also there. Valuing time to build margin is clearly gaining ground. This Fast Company post is a great reminder:
“I’ve interviewed over 5,000 people from more than 35 countries in my career as an executive headhunter and investor. I’ve sought out CEOs, presidents, board directors, and more for companies big and small, ranging from small startups to corporations with valuations in excess of $10 billion, on every continent except Antarctica.”
