Level 5 Leadership

Level 5 Leadership is an interesting concept in that it paves the steps as to what it entails to become a good leader and how good companies can become great ones. I especially took notice on the part involving personal humility. An individual that encompasses this characteristic often times look in the mirror, and not out the window. They respond by taking responsibility for poor results, never blaming other people (fundamental attribution error), external factors (self serving bias), or bad luck. My concern is how can you learn to become Level 5? I think it requires lots of personal attention to yourself and your own behaviors in order to take notice of your actions. But along that line, it also requires vision, strategy, focus, and discipline.
