In your first meeting with an emerging leader, you are likely to recognize his or her exceptional qualities. In subsequent meetings, your impression will improve.
You will detect an ability to advance the interests of an enterprise by exercising sound judgment, taking thoughtful risks, and fashioning organizational strategy. You will recognize a capacity to create a climate in which others are motivated to excel, a focus on self-improvement, and an ability to encourage others to develop new skills.
Before long, you will realize that this person has accomplished more than would be reasonably expected from someone his or her age, but that substantial new achievements can be expected in the future—that this may be someone who will help shape our state’s business or civic landscape.
