Welch On “How To Be A Good Leader”
My colleague Robin passed this Jack Welch-authored Newsweek article around the other week. In it Welch summarizes his eight “rules” of leadership, and it’s worth reading. My favorite line from the article isn’t actually one of his rules:
Before you become a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.
It seems I express the same sentiment most often to folks entering the GM / Managing Director ranks for the first time. It’s a big shift to make, from superstar to the creator of superstars, but it’s absolutely one of the things that separates admired leaders from the rest of the crowd.
