December’s leadership quote:
“Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself.
When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.”
-Jack Welch
While personal growth and development is lifelong, it is only through developing others that we achieve measurable results in our businesses. As a Vistage chair and leadership coach, I have the opportunity to observe every form of leadership. Here is what I see… it is those leaders that truly invest time and money in developing others that cross the dividing line from operator to leader.
No coincidence that nearly 20% of Vistage members produce annual revenue >$50mm; while less than 1.5% of US companies overall produce more than $25M in annual revenue and less than .27% produce more than $100M.
The initial results of my Pivot are excellent. I feel I have much greater clarity regarding the next 3-5 years..
