Then, that'll make the push effective to have a strategy worthy of the effort called upon." Just where are we at with leadership on that score?
Rumelts answered: That kind of leadership is grown through people doing tough things. If you're looking for a leader that who can do that, first of all, you're looking for someone who's done something hard, something difficult, who's been through a certain amount of fire and has succeeded at it, and then you need to give that person some power. They have to have some discretion to choose, those are the conditions that you have to set up. You know, if you look at Jack Welch and his enormous changes. He made a GE. The amazing thing first of all is he did it without there being a crisis, but the board backed him. Somehow, and this is a secret story that none of us quite understand he got the power to drop brands that were 100 years old to close divisions. He got this extraordinary ability to act. Lots of companies when someone starts to do that, there are phone calls at night, there are the Congresspeople call in, and you're blocked. But he got that power. So the power is necessary to change things to move in a new direction.
