Customer Obsession Leaders start with the customer and work backward. They work vigorously to earn and keep customer trust. Although leaders pay attention to competitors, they obsess over customers.

Have Backbone; Disagree and Commit. Leaders are obligated to respectfully challenge decisions when they disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. Leaders have conviction and are tenacious. They do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, they commit wholly.
(If you’re someone who thrives in competitive environments, be prepared to demonstrate that you can manage conflict calmly and rationally, that you can convince others with data, not by yelling or being unnecessarily aggressive. First, summarize for the interviewer an idea that you had. Tell a story about how you were convinced that your idea was the right way forward. Then, discuss what tactic you used to win the other person over. The best way to impress your interviewer is to describe how you used data in making your argument. Finally, if you were unsuccessful in persuading others, explain that you “committed” regardless. It’s okay if you lost the argument, but demonstrate that you were mature enough to support the decision that the company chose. If you were successful in winning support for your idea, skip this step.)

Deliver Results. Leaders focus on the key inputs for their business and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, they rise to the occasion and never settle.
