The true mark of a leader is the willingness to stick with a bold course of action — an unconventional business strategy, a unique product development roadmap, a controversial marketing campaign — even as the rest of the world wonders why you’re not marching in step with the status quo.

They understand that in an era of hyper-competition and non-stop disruption, the only way to stand out from the crowd is to stand for something special.
