James P. Cramer wrote in the attached blog: "Each day I get asked about - or find myself in a discussion about - executive level leadership.

I think his list is as valid to each of us as individuals in our own personal lives and practices as it is to those who are planning to take on high-ranking, servant leadership positions.
