Colin Powell, whose decades-long career repeatedly made history, often discussed his leadership philosophy, famously saying: "Leadership is solving problems."

 

Powell’s 13 rules were first published in Parade magazine on August 13, 1989, just three days before Powell was appointed by President George H.W. Bush as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Since then, his Thirteen Rules have been shared with millions of people in many different forms.

Among the many insightful perspectives shared, three practices appeared to be universal across these companies. First, build a culture of solidarity. Then, let employees co-create the workplace experience. Finally, coach your managers on how to genuinely care for others.
