“I not only use all the brains that I have, but all that I can borrow.”
~Woodrow Wilson
I have known many individuals, particularly senior leaders, working endlessly in isolation, determined to solve a problem or create value. These same folks rarely achieve anything remarkable for the simple reason is that they have relied solely on their own abilities and resources, forgetting or ignoring the fact that no one achieves greatness alone. It is only by recognizing the talent and value of every individual, and asking for their ideas and assistance, that great problems are solved and great victories are achieved. Be confident in, and utilize fully, your own talent and resources. But always, always, be aware of and seek out the help and resources of those around you.
