If everything you need to learn to be a great leader is out there, available to everyone, why, then are some leaders--and the organizations they run-so much more successful than others. Would your answer be: Because some leaders put more time and effort into learning the necessary skills Because some leaders are just more naturally talented than others Your answer to THIS question is the greatest predictor of your future success as a leader-not your degrees, experience, innate abilities, personality, current position or how many of the top qualities great leaders have that you already possess.

Whether you believe your success as a leader depends on you being more talented than others or you believe your success as a leader depends on your willingness to learn and develop the needed skills-this distinction is what determines EVERYTHING. In our society, and especially in the hierarchical structure in the corporate world, there is a prevailing belief that some people are simply smarter or more talented than others and that this difference is what accounts for a person's success or failure. However, in industries like sports where natural talent is highly coveted, over and over again the athletes who initially showed lower levels of raw talent are the ones who come out on top.
