All Pro Dad, which is supported by Tony Dungy and the National Football League, referenced recently about management guru Jim Collins - he had studied 11 of the most successful American companies over the past 15 years. These businesses averaged more than seven times the stock returns of the general market. The most significant attribute about these businesses that Collins found is that every one of them had a modest CEO.
There's no doubt doing your job and doing it well has a significant, positive impact on your family. So what is essential in climbing that corporate ladder? Management guru Jim Collins studied 11 of the most successful American companies over the past 15 years. These businesses averaged more than seven times the stock returns of the general market. The most significant attribute about these businesses that Collins found is that every one of them had a modest CEO. Collins shares that the starting point of a great company is a humble leader: "When these successful CEOs do something right, they walk you over to a window and point to all the reasons (and especially all the other people) 'out there' contributing to their success. When they do something wrong, they walk to a mirror and assume the blame themselves." Want to go far in your career? Walk humbly.
