Okay, so you founded the company, but does that mean you should also be the chief executive? Perhaps you were the right person for the job initially, but has the company outgrown your management ability? Did you bestow the title upon yourself simply because you had the authority to do so, or are you the right person for the job?

“Manager&# is an interesting title. An account manager is different from a store manager. Even within the title of “store manager&# the scope and breadth of responsibility varies widely. The manager of a 7-Eleven has significantly different responsibilities than the manager of a Costco store.

In most companies product managers have a lot of products and significant responsibilities. With all the meetings, floods of email, and requirements to manage, the thought of focusing on a product’s profitability can be illusive. Good product managers write understandable and timely requirements and prioritize them effectively.

Let me give you a great example…It is not at all uncommon for an executive to tell me that his/her business doesn’t really have any competition. All businesses have competition, serve stakeholders and other various constituencies, and must do certain things to avoid failure while on the path to creating a sustainable endeavor.

I think you’ll find that your view of the world will change dramatically when you rely upon your own observations, as opposed to what you read in a management report, or what you hear third or fourth hand in a meeting.

The short answer is yes…There are in fact a great number of tests that can quickly assess leadership ability. Something as simple as a 360 Review, or as complex as a deep psychological profile (both with weighted emphasis on leadership aptitude) can point out an individual’s leadership capabilities.

Give me real leaders who possess courage, vision, and a bias toward action, and spare me the timidity of mediocre managers posing as leaders. If change and innovation weren’t key contributors to sustainable success, and the enterprise could just run on auto-pilot, you could replace the CEO with a General Manager.
