Harvard Business Review, June 2014
“…new era of talent spotting - one in which our evaluations of one another are based not on brawn, brains, experience, or competencies, but on potential.”

DEVELOP LEADERS
Leaders: Born or Made?
“People often describe certain individuals as ‘natural-born leaders’, but the truth is that
business leaders are made, not born - shaped through the assignments they receive and
the experiences they have.” �Diana O’Brien & Alice Kwan, Fast Company

forced to pick the one that makes the most difference - you’d pick leadership.”
