Ram Charan in
Know-How
outlines how to spot future leaders.
One way?
“They come to the point succinctly,
are clear thinkers,
and have the courage to
state a point-of-view
even though listeners may react adversely.”
Talking a lot does not a future leader make.
Also, the future leader has to have the balls
to put her job or reputation on the line.
She makes the best decisions,
not the most popular.
