According to the Havard Business School, entrepreneurs tend to focus on strategies and technology more than building relationships. They cite founders and investors as being known to leap into business ventures without understanding target markets and customers.

Gallup confirms that great managers are scarce. They found that the talent is rare. “When Gallup asked managers to choose the option that best represented their management approach, 61% of managers with high talent say they take a strengths-based approach. … Gallup also has found powerful links between top talent and crucial business outcomes, including higher productivity, sales, and profitability, lower turnover and fewer unscheduled absences.“

10% of managers have the skills needed

Gallup reports that only 1 in 10 people possess the talent to manage.
