Rol says that attitude is important and seems to be saying that the way to
succeed is mainly through hiring people with the right attitude.
This is possible at a local and fairly small level. Few existing
corporations can do much with it, however, as the individuals are already
there.
However, I think that this view is too limited. I think that it is the
job of management, maybe its most important one, to create a culture which
is not the norm and which has attitudes of individuals change when they
are in it.
I've seen this in a few remarkable companies. The remarkable way of being
didn't come from hiring but from the culture that was created
intentionally.
