“We interviewed three ‘Leadership Development’ firms.
Each one asked ‘How many leaders are you trying to develop?’
We said, ‘One Thousand.’
They said, ‘Seriously, you need to identify your top leadership candidates, invest heavily in them, and they will provide great leadership to everyone else.’ We said, ‘We have one thousand employees, we want every one of them to maximize their leadership potential. Do you hav a program for that?’" "Silence.”
