Will |
Personal
Humility |
| Creates superb results, a clear
catalyst in the transition from good to great. |
Demonstrates a
compelling modesty, shunning public adulation; never boastful. |
| Demonstrates an unwavering resolve
to do whatever must be done to produce the best long-term results,
no matter how difficult. |
Acts with quiet, calm
determination; relies principally on inspired standards, not
inspiring charisma, to motivate. |
| Sets the standard of building an
enduring great company; will settle for nothing less. |

greater success in the next generation. |

window, to apportion responsibility for poor results, never blaming
other people, external factors, or bad luck. |
Looks out the window, not in the
