The common consensus among most people towards leaders veers towards those who are predictable and unflinching. But research indicates, that the most effective of leaders are those who think differently as Benjamin Franklin would. Such leaders can demonstrate flexibility, a trait needed both at the Congress and the C-Suite. Intellectual humility is now what most leaders need. This was published post a study conducted by the Pepperdine University.

Such people would be able to develop and then implement business innovations, primarily because they are ready to challenge their own perceptions and viewpoints held.
