Leadership Lessons From, “Hannibal Crossing The Alps” by John Prevas
1. Anyone who accomplishes something great, something unique, whether in business or in politics, often does so by defying the conventional thinking of his time.
2. Even though more than two thousand years have passed since Hannibal crossed those Alps, the elements of what it takes to be a successful leader have not changed. They are simple and obvious:
a. Motivating those who follow you to share your vision;
b. Inspiring through example;
c. A sense of duty and responsibility to those who trust and depend on you
d. The capacity to see a problem and the skill to fix it;
e. Developing and maintaining a proper perspective on yourself in the face of success or adversity;
f. Setting and achieving goals
g. Understanding people’s limits and knowing when to drive hard and when to ease up on both subordinates and competitors.
