Yesterday evening I watched the movie GANDHI, On Demand. I realized some leadership traits are timeless!
- Fundamental change takes time
- Fundamental change starts at the bottom of the pyramid (grass roots)
- Fundamental change only occurs with credible leadership
- Credibility is both visual and latent
- Credibility is multiplicative
- Performance and perception need to be managed
- Deviation from normality is not doomed
- Dissenters and Detractors to a philosophy cannot derail a credible leader
- Leadership means commitment and confidence
- Leadership means accepting shortfalls
- Leadership means acknowledging failure and retooling
- Leadership is constantly tested
- Leadership is honesty
- Leadership is strategic
- Pass opportunity in favor of substantiating appropriate cultural attributes
