I've had the privilege of working with some amazing leaders over my career. And been one...at least as often as I could muster. I've seen brilliance. Incredible competitiveness. Financial acumen. Huge vision. Relentlessness. And I've admired it all.
But when I think about the one trait that seems to be in every truly great leader, increasingly I've come to believe that it's simply the constant quest to improve. Leaders who are always asking, 'How can we do things better?' 'What do you know that can help us?' 'Tell me what you think.' 'Help me improve.' These leaders never get stale. And far from inciting distrust for not knowing, they inspire people to help them be great.
And I love to see greatness.
