The CEO's misfortune as a function of excess ego is wrong. The reputation of the executive fell not because of an ego, but principles that were not strong enough. Little integrity, much ego and his leadership team let him get away with it.

Despite their assessment of present challenges they nonetheless believe that they have what it takes to overcome these challenges and forge ahead.

The need for a leaders to have a strong ego is rather self evident. Much has been said about the need for leaders to be humble, to downplay their egos. Just review the business pages of executives all who succumbed; Bernie Ebbers at WorldCom or Ken Lay at Enron. The list is long.

To explain their misfortune as a function of excess ego is wrong. The reputations of these executives fell not because of their egos were strong, but their principles were not strong enough. They had little integrity, not to much ego.
