What leadership is required?
Archilochus - “The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.” A hedgehog concept is not a goal to be the best, a strategy to be the best or an intention to be the
- best. It is an understanding of what you can be
the best at for the marketplace you are in. The distinction is absolutely crucial!

Do we REALLY distribute leadership?
- 1. Look into this problem. Give me all the facts. I will decide what to
do.
- 2. Let me know the options available with the pros and cons of
- each. I will decide what to select.
- 3. Let me know the criteria for your recommendation, which
alternatives you have identified and which one appears best to you with any risk identified. I will make the decision.
- 4. Recommend a course of action for my approval.
- 5. Let me know what you intend to do. Delay action until I approve.
- 6. Let me know what you intend to do. Do it unless I say not to.
- 7. Take action. Let me know what you did. Let me know how it
turns out.
- 8. Take action. Communicate with me only if the action is
unsuccessful.
- 9. Take action. No further communication with me is necessary.
