Editor’s note, updated April 14, 2021: Last Friday, April 9, 2021, brought the unexpected passing of Tom Flannery, managing partner of the Pittsburgh office of Boyden, the international search firm.

He was also a close friend and one of Pittsburgh Quarterly’s original advertisers. Tom’s ability to size up leaders and match them with prospective organizations was deep and nuanced what you would expect from someone with vast life experience and great people skills. Today, in his memory, we’re publishing his response when we asked him and four other leaders: What do you believe to be the most important ingredients of successful leadership?
