16- Good-to-Great:
A key to an organization becoming great is having Level 5 Leader.
Jim Collins includes “Level 5” Leaders among the major elements in the success of organizations that move themselves from being merely “good” to truly “great.
Empowerment involves letting employees try out new ideas.
We have to make difficult decisions, such as getting the wrong people “off the bus,” accepting responsibility when things didn’t go as planned, and holding their organizations—and themselves—responsible for the results by which they measure success.
Level 5 leaders, with their dual traits of professional will and humility, inspire those around them to reach beyond their normal boundaries, achieving more than they thought originally possible. Upon achieving this self-efficacy, employees are more appropriate, like their role-model leaders, to place the good of the organization, above their own personal needs.
