Since the authoring of the last blog post there has been additional input. In asking Steve if I could use his quote in my blog he also had this to add:
“Only one minor addition I would make to my original comment – “Business skills ALONE…. “.
Clearly the skills are what get execs to that level, but core psychological DNA is what makes the difference between success and failure. How many times have you heard of CEO’s or other C-level execs leaving because of a “difference in philosophy”? This is the behavioral differences that come into play when people are hired for their technical skills and overlook the fit into the behavioral environment of the company.”
So this may begin to answer some of the deeper issues of whether great leaders, or great leadership teams, are born or created. Maybe it’s both. It is certainly worth some time investigating the core psychological DNA factor(s)… Maybe more blog fodder.
