Flashback - ACCA Student Conference 2012: Highlight #3

   Fire Eating: Breakthrough to Success
This talk is to enlighten the participants with a set of catalysts that can shape themselves into an effective leader. To be a successful leader, we need 3Cs (Character, Competency and Courage).

  • Character
    • The inward motivation to do what is right in every situation. Jim Collins in his book 'Good to Great' shows the pyramid of leadership. The pyramid started with a 'High Capable Individual' followed by 'Competent Team Member', 'Competent Leader', 'Effective Leader' and the last and most important Level 5 leadership are 'Personal Humility' and 'Professional Will'.
  • Competency
    • Refers to functional, personal, leadership and domain mastery within ourselves. We must equipped with learning agility so that we can close our competency gap between reality and our vision.
  • Courage
    • Talking about changing and breaking through our current comfort zone to achieve another level of proficiency and competency. At the end of this talk, we were asked to 'eat fire' in front of people.
