One of the leadership qualities - Strong belief in winning idea

the scene... employee staff meeting of a software company
the speaker just finished his speech and is open for questions. The speaker holds second highest position in the company.

the question came from one of the employee and related to a new project that is so much talked about in the company. The question was what if the new project fails !, do you have an alternate plan.

And the answer has come in notime. You cant win the war if you are losing it. Obvious !! But the essense is the belief. Belief in the team, in the idea, in the market, in the success rather in making the idea a success. First of all this project would not have been selected if its not a winning idea. And even if its slowly slipping the leader has great ability to bring it back on to the foot and make it a winning.

I salute the leader.
