Scholar Phase Attributes

 
Jim Collins, the author of the bestselling business classic Good to Great found in his study of successful top executives that:
 
"...many of the best CEOs were not flamboyant visionaries.
 
"They were humble, self-effacing, diligent, and resolute souls who found one thing they were really good at and did it over and over again.
 
"They did not spend a lot of time on internal motivational campaigns.
 
"They demanded discipline and efficiency."
 
[Quoted in The Social Animal by David Brooks.]

These character traits, habits and values are an excellent guide for scholar phase students.
