The two components are 1) Professional Will and 2) Personal Humility
Personal Will – Looks in the mirror not out of the window to apportion responsibility for poor results never blaming other people , external factors or bad luck
Personal Humility – Looks out the window not in the mirror to apportion credit for the success of the company – to other people , external factors and good luck
Adopted from Jim Collins’s book Good To Great
Level 5 leaders look out of the window to apportion credit to factors outside themselves when things go well , if they cannot find a specific person to give credit to , they credit good luck.
At the same time , they look in the mirror to apportion responsibility never blaming bad luck when things go poorly.
