Great quotes...

"They are people who have that intrinsic fiber of really caring about people..." - Joe Grano. Grano was the keynote speaker at the 'Deloitte Cincinnati 100 Luncheon' this week, where he expounded on the nature of leadership, explaining "Truly great leaders are born."

OK, let's put aside this DNA determinism, and get back to the first quote... Leaders care about people, indeed he says it is a part of their "intrinsic fiber." Too bad, then, that according to Grano two exemplars of leaders (remember, "really caring about people") are Jack Welch and Dick Grasso! Indeed, these two are legendary for their compassion for their fellow human beings... not!
