ExchangeEveryDay Past Issues

• Be ready to invest in developing other people.  Be unstinting in helping your colleagues realize their full potential.
• Understand the importance of nonconformity.  Leadership is about change, hope, and the future.  Leaders have to venture into uncharted territory, so they must be able to handle intellectual solitude and ambiguity.
• Develop the ability to put personal performance in perspective.  Over a long career, you will experience both success and failure.  Humility in success and courage in failure are hallmarks of good leaders.
• Be concerned about due process.  People seek fairness — not favors.  They want to be heard.  They often don't even mind if decisions don't go their way, as long as the process is fair and transparent.
