    Ambition- Level 5 VS. Comparison
    Level 5 leaders have ambition for the company and
    its success
    Level 5 leaders set up company for success in the
    future

    Comparison leaders have ambition for themselves
    Comparison leaders set up company for failure in the
    future
    Modesty Level 5 VS. Comparison
    Level 5 leaders do not promote themselves
    Level 5 leaders are not interested in
    credit/recognition

    Comparison leaders are very I-centric
    Comparison leaders want credit/recognition
    in magazines, interviews, photographs
    Level 5 Unwavering Resolve
    Level 5 is not only about humility and
    self-less ness
    Level 5 always does whatever it takes to
    make the company great
    Fire Relatives
    End Lasting Traditions
    Fight off corporate raiders

    The Window and Mirror Effect
    Level 5 leaders look out the window to give
    credit outside themselves in good
    situations

    Level 5 leaders look in the mirror to take
    responsibility in bad situations

    Level 5 leaders tend to attribute luck for success
    rather than their own efforts
    Common Mistakes Companies Make
    Select over-the-top dazzling celebrity leaders
    and over look quiet modest Level 5 leaders

    Thinking a high-profile outside leader can
    come in and shake up the place
    10 of 11 Level 5 CEOs came from inside the
    company
    Can You Learn to be a Level 5 Leader?
    Two types of people: those who do not have
    the seed of Level 5 and those who do
    Without Seed: Work will always be about what
    they get fame, money, power

    With Seed: These can evolve under the right
    circumstances to be Level 5 self-reflection,
    personal development, a mentor
