Description
Are you a genius with 1,000 helpers? If so, how do you become a level 5 leader? Do you find yourself or a colleague surrounded by people who are helping, but not taking ownership? Do you notice that if you want to get a project done, then it's up to you to ensure that it gets done? If this is the case, then perhaps you're an effective leader or a level 4 leader, but not a level 5 executive. In order to build a truly great, enduring company a level 5 leader is required which occurs through a paradoxical combination of personal humility and professional will. The problem is that for most leaders the capabilities necessary to get to level 4 will actually prevent them from getting to level 5. In this episode of The Growth Whisperers, Kevin and Brad discuss the key symptom of a level 4 leader, what Jim Collins calls 'the genius with 1,000 helpers'. They discuss the problems with being a genius with 1,000 helpers, how it prevents the best people from joining your team and those who do from achieving their best, and it damages your business. Finally, they talk about if you are a level 4 leader, how you can move to become a level 5 leader. Jim Collins Level 5 Hierarchy.
