In every area of effectiveness within an organization, one feeds the opportunities and starves the problems. Nowhere is this more important than in respect to people. The effective executive looks upon people including himself as an opportunity. He knows that only strength produces results. Weakness only produces headaches—and the absence of weakness produces nothing.
Have to get good at identifying the opportunities; that is, the natural experiments that present themselves according to circumstance. Shades of ccomplexity here.
