Exceptional leaders in any field are marked out by certain X factors they possess. One such X factor is they do not get overawed by complexity, but instead simplify them to make them easy to operationalize. While their solutions are simple to follow, they are not simplistic, but quite detailed in scope. They set the tone for the entire organization or team, by honing the inherent ambition present in all. The two fundamental human drivers- team security and tribalism- are well navigated in such a way that team members can look outside their narrow silos. They are excellent at talent management, which is why they identify the right people to be leaders at each level. Even teams that they do not lead become part of the bigger picture as inferences are drawn up from these to demonstrate flaws or successes for team mates to remain vigilant about.
