Novartis Chairman Vasella: 'You can teach concepts, but you can't teach experiences.'

This is a really good interview with the head of Novartis, Daniel Vasella. It's difficult to recall more truth on leadership in a single place than this feature from "The McKinsey Quarterly:" http://www.mckinsey.com/features/leading_in_the_21st_century/daniel_vasella.

For the TGR record, it's equally difficult to find effective CEOs who can teach, or more importantly, transfer concepts as well. Rare in today's fear-based environment.
