Blanchard® company president Scott Blanchard believes that the human heart is the perfect visual image to use in remembering some important aspects of good leadership.
As Blanchard explains, “It’s a rich metaphor—and one that we have adopted as a part of our company’s tagline, The Heart of Human Achievement®.
“The beating heart of every company is made up of the combined beating hearts of all the people within that company. People’s heads and hands—their thinking and skills—are important, but what really differentiates a highly motivated and purposeful organization are people’s hearts. It’s the team with heart that wins. Heart is at the center of human achievement, individually and collectively.”
