Ten years ago, I was lucky to join forces with Andrea Redmond, Charles A. Tribbett III, and their team at Russell Reynolds Associates. We gathered leadership insights from some of the world’s most successful business leaders. The result was the book Business Evolves, Leadership Endures.
Here are the nine leadership traits we featured in the book, along with quotes from some of the business leaders we interviewed:
1. The Commitment Not To Lead A Little Life: “Like many people, I was going through life getting caught in little details. But then I thought, do I really want to live my life in a comfortable apartment, taking care of myself and just earning money, when instead I could perhaps change the future of my nation, a country where there is a desperate, aching, yearning need with thousands of kids nearby in starvation?”
These are the words of Taddy Blecher, Founder and former CEO of CIDA City Campus, who also co-founded the Branson School of Entrepreneurship with Sir Richard Branson.

I love this entire list, but believe that 7 and 3 need to work hand in hand. Listen and then communicate.
