Attitude is a leadership signal
Attitude is a leadership signal.
Carl Eschenbach, CEO of Workday, put it simply: for Gen Z, career momentum comes less from résumé padding and more from authentic relationships, a steady mindset, and serving others.
That’s just as true when assessing leaders.
What separates leaders with potential from those ready for the next level:
• Authentic conviction. Execution becomes clear when leaders mean what they say and follow through.
• Trust that lasts. Influence comes from consistency and alignment, not just title or position.
• Service mindset. The strongest leaders focus on moving both the business and their teams forward — not just themselves.
At Eagle Talon, we look past credentials. We ask: which mindset turns ideas into real results?
In markets, investors back leaders who make the path forward clear — because clarity builds confidence, and confidence attracts capital.
