Leadership Primer Lesson 4 /18 @Gen Colin Powell



"Don't be afraid to challenge the pros,
even in their own backyard."

Friends,

Learn from the pros, observe them, seek them out as mentors and partners. But remember that even the pros may have leveled out in terms of their learning and skills. Sometimes even the pros can become complacent and lazy. Leadership does not emerge from blind obedience to anyone. Xerox's Barry Rand was right on target when he warned his people that if you have a yes-man working for you, one of you is redundant. Good leadership encourages everyone's evolution.

(Bersikap obyektif & beri input - jangan jadi "yes man" dan ngikuuuut aja kaya' si bebek2 di gambar. Namun dalam hal arah dan spirit kita harus ikut jadi satu - one spirit one direction ! okidoki ?!:)
