Why do companies not see leaders?

You know, a very wise person told me that you have to ask for what you want. Well, sometimes companies are so busy with the business that they don't see the opportunities offered by their "hidden" leadership talent.

Be bold - ask for what you want! Don't be afraid to ask questions and don't be afraid to take informed risks. Sometimes you might have to do a job for awhile before you get paid for it - if it is what you wanted - it is worth it.

Remember - it will probably never happen as fast as you want it to, so take a deep breath and be as patient as you can. Keep talking and talking and talking - to anyone that will listen. Listen to the feedback and apply it to your idea - keep driving the change.
