Are You A Trustworthy Manager?
Jim Collins, in his classic book "Good to Great," refers to the most effective leaders as "Level 5." Level 5 leaders are driven and at the same time humble. Their motivation is not self-gratification but building an organization bigger than themselves. Being devoted to others and to a larger mission at one's own expense breeds trust and loyalty.
