“There is a great movement taking place throughout the world today. Its roots are found in two powerful forces.
One is the dramatic globalization of markets and technology… [which] is fueling the impact of the
second force: the force of timeless, universal principles that have, and always will govern all enduring
success….One of these fundamental,timeless principles is the idea of servant leadership.”
Stephen R. Covey

“Level 5 leaders channel their ego needs away from themselves and into the larger goal of building a great company. It’s not that Level 5 leaders have no ego or self
interest. Indeed, they are incredibly ambitious –but their ambition is first and
foremost for the institution, not themselves.”
Jim Collins

Discussion Points� Which is harder to cultivate in yourself: humility
or will? � If Level 5 is about ambition about the cause
(as opposed to self) combined with the will to make good on that ambition, how can each of us as individuals learn to take actions consistent with being Level 5?
� Why are so few Level 5’s chosen to lead top spots? What can WE do to change this?

“There is an old saw, that there are only two fundamental sources of change in
human affairs: aspiration and desperation. We are familiar with the
phrase, ‘Nothing will ever change unless there is a crisis.’ That is
desperation….Aspiration drives virtually all fundamental learning.”
