To find or develop products or services that will become true game-changers, you have to be able to get different view points on that innovation26Innovate for the ConsumerP&G innovations have become so successful and a part of peoples daily lives because the company innovates its brands with the customer in mind 100 percent of the timeNot only does P&G innovate with the customer in mind, but it strives to understand its customer base for new productsInnovating products that customers cant live without doesnt come without trial and error.

You lead today by building teams and placing others first. Its not about you.Simplify Constantly: Every leader needs to clearly explain the top three things the organization is working on. If you can't, then you're not leading well.Understand Breadth, Depth, and Context: How your company fits in with the world and how you respond to it.Importance of alignment and time management: There is no real magic to being a good leader. But at the end of every week, you have to spend your time around the things that are really important: setting priorities, measuring outcomes, and rewarding them.36Management ApproachLeaders learn constantly and also have to learn how to teach : A leader's primary role is to teach. People who work with you don't have to agree with you, but they have to feel you're willing to share what you've learned.Stay true to your own style : Leadership is an intense journey into yourself. You can use your own style to get anything done. It's about being self-aware. Every morning, I look in the mirror and say, 'I could have done three things better yesterday.Manage by setting boundaries with freedom in the middle: The boundaries are commitment, passion, trust, and teamwork. Within those guidelines, there's plenty of freedom. But no one can cross those four boundaries.Leave a few things unsaid: I may know an answer, but I'll often let the team find its own way. Sometimes, being an active listener is much more effective than ending a meeting with me enumerating 17 actions.37CredentialsDirector, Chairman, and CEO of General Electric CompanyDirector NBC Universal Media, LLCChairman of the Board and CEO General Electric Capital Services Inc.Director Robin Hood FoundationTrustee Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation Inc.Director Catalyst Inc.Chairman GE India Services Holding LimitedExecutive Chairman, CEO and Member of Public Responsibilities Committee General Electric Company (2000-Present)Director, Member of Management and Budget Committee The Federal Reserve Bank of New York (2006-2011)Trustee Dartmouth College (2008-Present)381925-PresentMalaysiaUnited Malays National Organization

Free Knowledge for Free MindsJimmy D. WalesWikipedia

65RecognitionCo-Founder, Wikipedia American Internet Entrepreneur and Wiki Pioneer Wikipedia: Largest and Most Popular GeneralReference workon the InternetOne of Time Magazines 100 Most Influential People of 2006Listed by the World Economic Forum as one of the Young Global Leaders of 200766IntroductionReceived his bachelors degree in finance from Auburn University and started with the Ph.D.finance program at the University of Alabama, where left with a Masters.After that, took coursesoffered in the Ph.D. finance program at Indiana University.Taught at both universities during hispostgraduate studies, but left before completing a PhD in order to take a job in finance and later worked as the research director of a Chicago futures and options firm.On January 15, 2001, with Larry Sanger and others, Wales launched Wikipedia.67WikipediaWales outlined his vision for Wikipedia:"Imagine a world in which every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge. Thats what we're doing."It has no editors, no fact checkers and anyone can contribute an entry - or delete one. It should have been a recipe for disaster, but instead Wikipedia became one of the internet's most inspiring success stories The number of readers of Wikipedia worldwide reached 365 million at the end of 2009.As of May 2012, Wikipedia is the sixth-most-popular website worldwide.68ComparisonAt the time Wikipedia it was celebrating the publishing of its one millionth entry in less than four years, the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography launched its latest edition which took12 years to complete, yet contained a comparatively small 55,000 biographies.The aforementioned dictionary cost some 25m to create. Wikipedia has so far been bankrolled by Wales, but the total cost so far is still around 300,000.The English Wikipedia alone has over 2.5 billion words, over 50 times as many as the next largest English-language encyclopedia, Encyclopedia Britannica.69Perceived ShortcomingMany critics have tried to downplay its role as a source of valid information and have often pointed to the Encyclopedia Britannica as an example of an accurate reference.Nature (online science news source) chose articles from both sites in a wide range of topics and sent them to "relevant" field experts for peer review. Journal found just eight serious errors, such as general misunderstandings of vital concepts, in the articles. Four came from each site. Discovered a series of factual errors, omissions or misleading statements. All told, Wikipedia had 162 such problems, while Britannica had 123.Averages out to 2.92 mistakes per article for Britannica and 3.86 for Wikipedia. 70JustificationThe truth is that Wikipedia is far from finished, but even now, flaws and all, it is already one of the wonders of the digital age.It is available for free for everyone all over the world at all times.It has given a whole new meaning to the word free knowledge.Wikipedia was not the first attempt of its kind. But under the leadership of Jimmy Wales it became the first to reach phenomenal success. For this achievement Jimmy Wales is considered to be one of the most successful leaders of the past decade.711964-PresentUnited StatesEntrepreneur

Worlds Largest Online RetailerJeffrey P. BezosAmazon

72RecognitionAmerican entrepreneur who played a key role in the growth of e-commerce as the Founder and CEO of Amazon.com, Inc.Named Time magazine's Person of the Year in 1999In 2008, selected by U.S. News & World Report as one of America's Best LeadersAwarded an honorary doctorate in Science and Technology from Carnegie Mellon University in 2008In 2011, The Economist gave Bezos an Innovation Award for the Amazon Kindle73IntroductionGraduated from Princeton in 1986 with B.S. in electrical engineering and computer science. And went on to work on Wall Street in the computer science field.Worked on building a network for international trade for a company known as Fitel followed by worked at Bankers Trust, where he became vice-president.Later on he also worked in computer science for D. E. Shaw & Co where he also became the vice-president.Left his well-paying job at a New York City hedge fund when he learned about the rapid growth in Internet use and founded Amazon.com in 1994.74IntroductionIt is the world's largest online retailer.Amazon's initial business plan was unusual. The company did not expect a profit for four to five years. When the dot-com bubble burst, and many e-companies went out of business, Amazon persevered.It finally turned its first profit in the fourth quarter of 2001: $5 million or 1 per share, on revenues of more than $1 billion.It made tremendous growth during the past decade. For the year 2011 it made a Net Income of $631 million.75Amazon - Business PrinciplesCustomer Obsession: We start with the customer and work backwardsInnovation: If you dont listen to your customers you will fail. But if you only listen to your customers you will also fail.Bias for Action: We live in a time of unheralded revolution and insurmountable opportunityprovided we make every minute count.Ownership: Ownership matters when youre building a great company. Owners think long-term, plead passionately for their projects and ideas, and are empowered to respectfully challenge decisions.High Hiring Bar: When making a hiring decision we ask ourselves: Will I admire this person? Will I learn from this person? Is this person a superstar?Frugality: We spend money on things that really matter and believe that frugality breeds resourcefulness, self-sufficiency, and invention!76JustificationThere are, and have been, a huge number of competitors in e-commerce business but under the leadership of Jeff Bezos, Amazon.com is light years ahead of all of themIf they keep this up, theres a good possibility that youre looking at shopping malls going the way of the record store and the bookstore and the video rental storeFor playing such an influential role in developing the innovative field e-commerce with such huge success, Bezos surely considered to be one of the most top leaders of the past decade.77

Its not just about the visuals, but strengtheningOUR MESSAGE78ConclusionThe purpose of our presentation is not just to categorize and pass judgment but to seek inspiration in the examples of great leaders.A common theme we see in the examples of all these leaders is that success is not achieved over night. It requires creativity and imagination along with continuous unrelenting efforts and determination.If we learn the importance of leadership traits from these examples and apply ourselves to sharpen those skills through study and practice.It you do it well, who knows maybe one day one of you might be presented somewhere in some class room in the same way that we have presented these great leaders here today.79
