Leadership: It's Not About You

The starting point for the journey to change your culture takes real courage and is an application of courage that doesn’t get nearly enough airplay.

The more difficult, but more rewarding path is to find the courage to hire people who have the potential to surpass you, who think differently than you do, and who are willing and able to challenge you.
