Leaders need to exercise prudence while choosing whom they associate with.
Warren Buffet cautions – You want to associate with people who are the kind of person you’d like to be. (because) You’ll move in that direction. We’ve never succeeded in making a good deal with a bad person.
The risk is not just that one ends up in legal or financial issues, but that one grows to be more like them over time.
Are we choosing our associations consciously?
