On pushing through...................

     The way one brings people together to do this is the key.  This is what is what most people call "leadership."  What are the most important things that a leader needs to do in order to get their organizations to push through to results?  Most importantly, they must recruit individuals who are willing to do the work that success requires.  While there might be more glamour in coming up with the brilliant new ideas, most of success comes from doing the mundane and often distasteful stuff, like identifying and dealing with problems and pushing hard over a long time.
