Most important Leadership Lessons!

You have to know where you are going, have the courage to take the first step to get there, and constantly hone the means by which you will reach your destination.

• Leadership is intangible. The first step is earning the trust of people you work with. Everything else follows from that.
• Taking the best of the past, and linking it to the present and desired future is the most dynamic way to build a business.
• Once you’ve identified the company’s best resources, blowing up the old and beginning anew can be the fastest way to put a troublesome past behind you.
• Closing a plant is a sad day, so treat people adversely affected as fairly as possible. Your larger obligation though, is to make the company a great place for the employees who are staying on.
  

When a message is important, never be afraid to repeat yourself. People rarely get it the first time around.
