Importance of Staff

Staff is one of the more important and critical basics of leadership...always has been, always will. ANY leader, from a small business to the President of the United States knows the importance of staff members.

A leader simply cannot do it all. She or he cannot be an expert in everything when it comes to an organization. You simply manage the process. As an example, I think the majority of mistakes that former President Bush (W) made was from misinformation and lack of smart decision making from his staff over the last few years of his presidency. A leader simply cannot do it all. It's vital to have great staff.
