Every company builds the same thing - leaders
Lets shake up our assumptions about what our organization does. Every company makes something and sells that product or service. They make shoes, or cars, or deliver professional services, or deliver mail, or milk. But lets pretend that our company really doesn't do what we think it does. Lets imagine that our company does only one thing - building great leaders.
Leaders, in the organizational sense, in that they develop their specific skill that they apply in their role, and mentor and train other more junior level staff. Leaders know what to do. Leaders don't need to be motivated. They lead by example and live the values that they ask others to uphold. This way, instead of training people to do specific and sometime repetitive jobs, people are encouraged to develop skills that will benefit them in any role. Written and verbal communication, negotiation, ethics, international business, and motivation are particular areas that can be developed.
