The Friday Special: Flawed CEO Vision - Optometrists Needed

Here's a link to a good blog post about the vision of IBM CEO (from 1952 - 1971) Tom Watson... A Leader's Perspective. He was a business visionary, but also had good vision when it came to people.

-----------------------

Thinking a bit more about CEO's who are great visionaries...

The news of the past couple of days has given us stories about a couple of big-time CEO's who desperately need to get a vision check.

One is caught up in the US and world financial crisis. The other wiped out 25% of his firm's stock value in one day by discontinuing a product line.

Their stocks are tanking, They're flailing around making bad decisions about the future course and survival of their firms.

Flawed vision is killing their stockholders, customers and employees.
