Point of the Principle on the Lid
•An organization will never surpass the capabilities of its
leaders.
•If the leadership is strong, the lid is high
•The lower an individual's ability to lead, the lower the lid
on his potential.
– if your leadership were an 8, your effectiveness can
never be greater than a 7.
– Your organization will never grow more than the 7
– Because you are the lid.
