Leadership Boils Down To The Three Cs

Leadership boils down to three Cs, says Accenture chief William D. Green, chairman and CEO of Accenture, says you don’t need endless management tricks and techniques to be a good leader — you just need to be competent, confident and caring. “There are three things that matter,” he adds. “When young people are looking for clarity … I just tell them that.”

Notice he didn’t say charismatic, crafty, or crooked… three attributes that we have seen in so-called leaders who were only leading a deck of cards.

How would you rate on the competence, confidence and caring scale? Better still, how would your employees rate you? Your customers?  Something to think about.
