Ingredient four: Leadership & Culture

Leadership is about transparency and authenticity; vision and values; the courage to act and the willpower to wait. Transparency comes from a consistent message that embodies the core values, beliefs and expectations of the leader and manifests as a shared mission. Authenticity comes by institutionalizing these values into the culture.
