Leadership Tip
Benefitting from Those Behind
Recently, Ed Roberts died on April 2nd.
You may be wondering,
“Who is this guy and why do I care?”
He
was an engineer who liked to tinker.
Mr. Roberts wanted people to be able
to own
and afford their own computer,
without it taking up a whole room.
He created a build-it-yourself
computer kit for $439.00.
This
kit was what Bill Gates
used to start Microsoft and
create a
revolution.
Often we only hear about
the people out in
front.
We see their accomplishments
and are unaware of those
who stand in the background.
Who is behind you that needs
acknowledgement
or credit?
Brian Billick, former Baltimore Ravens coach,
would
ask the game’s MVP who was
most responsible for supporting him.
Billick would give the game ball
to that person, behind the
visible MVP.
We praise and glorify our
visionary
entrepreneurs and leaders.
Let us also remember to
acknowledge
the people behind them
who make things possible.
