Great leadership is more about what you do than what you are born with. Natural charisma may be valuable in some situations, but it has nothing to do with leadership. Being decisive is also useful, but doesn’t mean you effectively lead people. And innate assertiveness may just mean you push people around to get your own way.
Book reviews aren’t something I normally do, and it isn’t the intention of our blogs at EOS Worldwide, but I hope and trust that you will gain tremendous benefit from this book, as it so validates and compliments our teachings.
Great companies operate with a small set of business standards. These are the lines you won’t cross – the few things that aren’t negotiable.
Great managers are hard to find. Great managers have a true gift and a passion for getting the most out of people. Great managers possess a unique ability that is not in everyone.
Company mission statements result in a more successful organization, according to EOS Worldwide®. The creators of the Entrepreneurial Operating System® (EOS®), recently reported that companies who have well-developed mission statements that accurately describe the purpose of the business tend to be more successful and stay in business longer than those who don’t. According to Gino Wickman, EOS Founder, “Defining a company mission statement, or as we call it, a Core Focus™, isn’t always an easy process, but it’s an extremely valuable exercise that helps business owners fully clarify their purpose for the business and gives everyone a central purpose to focus on. A great mission statement also makes it easy for other organizations to gain insight into what you do.”
