Why do crazy leader do so well?

 

What qualities do you need to have to become a great leader? 

"Manners first!"
“Each action is classy, ​​and consideration to understand the mistakes of team members is essential.

"Reliance on subordinates!
“If you entrust a task, you must believe it until the end.”

"Open attitude!"
“You have to be wary of becoming a solitary general. You have to open your ears to outside voices. A leader who doesn’t listen to others can never last long.”

“No matter what you do, you must not go beyond the limits of common sense as well as the law.” Perhaps this is the textbook answer.

So what about reality? Look at the so-called successful leaders in the IT industry.

Does it fit here? Let's compare it with reality one by one.

"Manners first!"

"Each action has dignity and consideration to understand the mistakes of team members is essential."
-> What is the reality?

 

"If you don't want to, don't do it right away"
"Ignoring others is basic, and if you want to make mistakes, you can use abusive language."

"Confidence in subordinates!"

“If you entrust a task, you must believe it until the end.”
-> What is the reality?

 

"Almost paranoid"
“He controls everything one by one, and sometimes overturns a project that works just fine from scratch.”

“No matter what you do, you must not go beyond the law and common sense.”

-> What is the reality?
"Machiavellianist"
"Any way to achieve success"

Let's take a concrete example.

 

It gave the employees a lot of work stress by talking about the pirate spirit, and even if they were an early member, they wouldn't give a penny of stock if they didn't do well. A reporter who was an Apple fan is dismissed because it was a waste of time to interview you.

(Steve Jobs, founder of Apple) - crazy leader 1

When a subordinate announces a business plan, he puts a calculator next to him and tries to guess each indicator one by one.

And when I asked a question after the presentation, I got nervous right away when I got an unsatisfactory answer.

(Jack Welch, Chairman of GE) - crazy leader 2

 

 

I choose to do things that other people should never do.

Solar power generation business, electric vehicle, spaceship, etc. It is natural that hardships and adversity repeat itself! In the solar power generation business, investors delayed deposits, the release date of the electric vehicle was delayed due to insufficient technology development, and the rocket launch failed three times in a row.

But go all the way! Some time ago, he caused controversy by saying that he would take a manpower accident and create a colony on Mars.

(Elon Musk, Tesla CEO) - crazy leader 3

A number of so-called 'vaporware' strategies are used countless times by cleverly copying Apple's graphic-based interface (GUI) and pretending to exist when there is no product.

And crush competitors with tying strategy.
(Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft)

What's the difference between a madman and an innovator?

"There is only a difference in degree, but if you are a well-known IT company founder, you have one or two characteristics as the basics."

"What is the reason that the leader that employees want and the leader who excels in reality are different?"

"Because someone with ability doesn't necessarily mean he's an adult. Smooth interpersonal relationships are only a small part of his business skills."

"And eccentric traits also have two sides. The difference between an idiot and an innovator, cleverness and firearms, and anomaly and excellence are just a sheet of paper. Take a look."
Has no manners and is rough
-> charisma

 

Catch up on editorial fanatics one by one
-> perfectionism
overconfidence in oneself
-> propulsion
workaholic properties
-> Concentration and execution ability
A look at all means
-> meritocracy

“According to the result, the interpretation will be different.”

Last reason!"

 

“If the behavior of ordinary people is similar and the level of vision and goals are the same, wouldn’t it be difficult to innovate or achieve results?”

“If there is one thing I want to say, it is that business is not romantic and ideal. Sometimes it looks filthy and harsh. Where is it easier to do better than others?”

“Of course, there must be humanism at the bottom of his fierce appearance.”
