Big Broods: CEO Training
Looks like the new CEO for Eli Lily offers his big family as inspiration for many of the skills that got him to the top.
A large family taught Lechleiter how to negotiate, cooperate and get along with others. It also taught him the importance of education. He tore through high school, taking advanced chemistry, physics and calculus classes.
I’ve certainly seen a lot of negotiation happen around here. Too often it’s the “Take it or leave it” negotiation tactic, but I’ve often seen some wonderfully giving moments between my children that make me feel ashamed for my own “It’s MINE!” attitude that I have sometimes.
How about you? Do you see any budding CEO’s in your brood? What kind of “business skills” do you think your goslings are learning?
