A true leader cannot operate without the ability to manage and communicate effectively with people and organisations. Innovative ideas and a thought-through strategy are not enough in themselves to create success. What global business leaders recognise is that it is the capability of the management to implement these ideas that drives the performance of the business and that capable, committed teams usually best understand and deal with the needs of customers. A clear, often imitable style of management is what defines the most successful CEO’s and Chairmen of large organisations: these people are clear as to where their business is heading and are adept at communication this to their organisations as a whole.
