Humbition

What is Humbition?


1.

It’s a term Polly and I first heard from Jane Harper, a nearly 30-year veteran of IBM. It is, she explains, the subtle blend of humility and ambition that drives the most successful leaders—an antidote to the know-it-all hubris that affects so many business stars. “The more I know,” she says sensibly, “the more I know there is to know.”

To get anywhere in this business without a little humbition.

See humble, ambition, work, corporate, ethic
