Success tips from world's top management guru

January 15, 2009

  • If you want new ideas, you have to push yourself into the periphery.

  • How many senior executives discuss the crucial distinction between competitive strategy at the level of a business and competitive strategy at the level of an entire company?

  • Especially in troubled times, leaders must behave like emotional and intellectual anchors. You must steady the organisation and have a passionate belief that what you are doing is important.

  • Leadership is about what you do when the going gets tough… The critical issue is about faith, passion, and, most importantly, authenticity -- so that people know you are not pretending. People can see a sham."

  • I spend a lot of time talking about what we're doing in terms of strategy. You have to give the same message over and over again.
