Forbes - How One CEO Uses Extreme Openness To Lead 8,000 People

"Our customers want to hear our point of view on technology. But at the same time we want to make sure we stay very customer-focused... In order to resolve the conflict between leading and listening to our customers, I started talking about that challenge at employee meetings... I asked employees to try to build that challenge into what they did every day. Our customer support team then built a whole new system that can do proactive diagnostics. It looks at systems and sees where they have a problem. No senior manager, including me, had the idea to do that. I'd say I catalyzed the idea by saying that customer focus was important. Then our people went and did it. I didn't have to say, 'Let's build a product or form a customer council.' The organization just did it." —Jim Whitehurst, CEO, Red Hat
