What One Expects In a Great Boss
One sees it over and over, large corporations are really not the good at choosing the next CEO. And in fact, it seems that some formerly great companies have become very good at putting the wrong person into the big chair. All of us no doubt have our own pet reasons why that is.

• Integrity
• Passion
• Courage
• Vision
• Judgement
• Emotional intelligence
• Empathy
