Peak Performance

One of my favorite authors is Malcolm Gladwell, author of The Tipping Point, Blink, and now Outliers: The Story of Success. I cannot recommend his books highly enough. You can read about Outliers and listen to an interview with Gladwell by going to NPR.org.

You will also enjoy watching Gladwell talk about his research and findings on extraordinary success. With story and humor Gladwell confirms what my quotes on leadership have already represented: leaders are not cut from a special genetic cloth, they are rather the product of culture, opportunity, initiative, and persistence. Gladwell debunks the myth of anyone being "self-made" and substitutes, instead, the age-old correlation between effort and reward. I hope you watch the videos:
