Engage and Develop Others

get to know and be genuinely

interested in affairs of others.
Listen truly listen . and make
time for others

Reinvent Continuously

Tradition versus creativity (the

story of the Cat)
Avoid the status quo. It has
always been like this
Take positive risks. Dare! Live out
of your shell.

 Be bold almost do not care

(facebook, google, ms, apple people who dared and avoided
the statusquo. It is not business
as usual).
Contexts change readapt

Value Results and Relationships

- Distance and relation unmask

the leader
- Cult of Personalities

Embody the Value

True leadership has nothing to do with
ones level in the organization. There
many individuals who do not hold
leadership positions and yet they are
providing leadership all the time just as
there are many others who hold
leadership positions and they are not
showing any leadership at all.

 Leadership is more about what others dont

see than they do see
Like the Iceberg 20% above water and 80%
under water.
20% = Skills (doing)
80% = Character

Skills (doing)

Character (Being)

Integrity
Creates and maintains trust
The person is in touch with reality
Result oriented task/action

 Embraces negative realities

problems as opportunities
Pursues growth and
Achieves Transcendence and
meaning in life

Being and having

The old clich some are born

great, some achieve greatness
while others have greatness
thrust upon them
Another clich all men are born
equal with unequal opportunity
to become unequal
