Question 5 of 20

5. Question
1. Explain how, in the book, the “Gorillas in Hawaii” image explains leadership.
- A. Because having “Gorillas in Hawaii” would be legally and financially irresponsible, this image explains that true leaders always act to protect the safety and fiscal soundness of the people and organizations they lead.
- B. Sometimes true leaders have to create what’s possible. Often, there is not a manual for their vision, just like there isn’t a manual to transport gorillas to Hawaii. So, true leaders must persist, go beyond the job description, and accomplish the task.
- C. Just like David knew that a Gorilla’s natural habitat is Hawaii, true leaders quickly identify people’s natural talents and strengths. Then, they put the “Gorillas in Hawaii”: they place people in “natural habitats” where their talents and strengths are maximized.
