Did you ever notice the strong relationship between the traits of great
leaders and the traits of great human beings? Do you think that tells us
something about what human potential is all about? Do you notice, as
well, that leadership is about bringing out the best in everyone to the
benefit of all? Might this be yet another affirmation of the value of
taking a holistic view of our humanity, in and out of the context of
organizations?
