About this title

Synopsis

The winner on the Leadership Culture Checkerboard knows that he is bound by the same execution rules as his opponent. And their end strategy is also the same ... to win. Consequently, the greatest difference between winning and losing comes down to the culture created through leadership. The winner knows the culture he creates fuels every other aspect of his success. He knows the value of his pieces. He knows how to get the most out of each one. He recognizes that even the least of the pieces has significant value in the overall success. He thinks ahead several moves and visualizes victory long before it's apparent. He sees the power of using all the pieces, not just a select few. He looks for new ways to combine their value into something greater than the number. Most of all, he looks at the board from a higher level, not seeing it as one move at a time, but seeing it as an entire group working towards a cause... acting rather than reacting because they have a leader.
