- Bruce Barton
Successful leaders realize that by small and simple things, great things are built. When coaching young talent the challenge of the leader is two-fold:
1. Effectively communicate the grand vision of the organization, the goal and the individual(s) impact and
2. Show the followers the power and importance of all the little details needed to build success without overwhelming them in the process.
This challenge of balancing broad vision with detailed execution is best done by providing transparency in both vision and process to all involved. By involving others in executing the "small and simple" the leader can gain buy in to the broader vision. Transparency also breeds trust in relationships and thus in organizations.
Successful leaders teach that the big picture success is only achieved by taking one careful step at a time. Paint broad strokes. Define the details. Step back to get perspective, pay attention to everything needed to succeed and work like hell. Don't forget, mastery takes time - for you, and others. Patience and persistence breed mastery in "the little things" that breed long term success.
