Why this event?
If someone told you that humility is the key to being more competitive as a company and a more influential leader, how long would it take before you tuned them out and started looking at your watch waiting for the training to end?
In Jim Collins' landmark Good to Great research, for the 11 of 1,425 companies that made the leap from good performance to great, Collins discovered two unique traits of leaders throughout their cultures: 1) intense professional will, and 2) extreme personal humility.
Why it makes a difference.
He called that rare combination of traits Level 5 leadership. The leaders of those companies outperformed not only their competitors, but the market in general by an average margin of difference of 688%, and sustained that difference for 15 years. Humility isn't just a nice trait to have. Humility is a competitive necessity.
This session on pure confidence investigates how humility and ego combine to give leaders their best chance to reach Level 5.
