A Leadership Story:
• A group of workers and their leaders are set a task
of clearing a road through a dense jungle on a remote island to get
to the coast where an estuary provides
a perfect site for a port.
• The leaders organise the labour into efficient units and monitor the
distribution and use of capital assets – progress is excellent. The
leaders continue to monitor and evaluate progress, making
adjustments along the way to ensure the progress is maintained and
efficiency increased wherever possible.
• Then, one day amidst all the hustle and bustle and activity, one
person climbs up a nearby tree. The person surveys the scene from
the top of the tree.
