Success With Level 5 Leadership

Success With Level 5 Leadership

Both highly successful and less successful companies have decent leadership. Except, less successful companies have what you call a level 4 leader.

  • They produce results, make the decisions, and others follow.
  • It’s more about them and their success rather than the success of the organization.

Meanwhile, highly successful companies have a level 5 leader.

  • They raise up stronger leaders around them.
  • Solve issues along with their team.
  • Take the blame and give credit to others.
  • Focus on the success of the organization and not about themselves.

According to Jim Collins and his Stanford team, the difference between a highly successful company and one that fails is the difference in the type of leader.

  • Make sure you are focused on seeing the organization be successful even at your own expense. 
  • Encourage people smarter than you to join the team. 
  • Listen to their ideas and give them the credit. 

If you build your skills as a level 5 leader, you’ll be surprised at what you can accomplish.

I wonder, should you give credit to John C. Maxwell for the definition of Level 5 Leadership?
