I’ve seen many an executive or consultant attempt to identify leaders with interviews, tests, evaluations, etc., Leaders and non-leaders alike need career-pathing, training and development. They are the ones that put the needs of others, as well as the needs of the organization, ahead of their own. only to fail in miserable fashion.

The fact of the matter is that senior executives who rise to the C-suite do so largely based upon their ability to consistently make sound decisions. Those leaders who avoid making decisions solely for fear of making a bad decision, or conversely those that make decisions just for the sake of making a decision will likely not last long.

It is my experience that they either lack the personal skill sets, or haven’t built the right executive team to lead change, they just don’t recognize the need for change, or they just don’t care.
