Overview: This article is a tribute to ignorance and considered as a greatest leadership tool. The business community neither understands nor respects ignorance though it is one of the most powerful tools as a business leader but in last two years it has been seen that ignorance vastly misused by heads of companies and their advisors. Ignorance frees you to move You see, the moment you say “I don’t know,” you’re safe. You can venture into the unknown and if things don’t work out, you’re blameless. In fact, you’ve already pointed out that you didn’t have the answers. But not every time ignorance works as sometime you have to use common sense. Sometimes, it is your job to know the answer. CEO should know how their company is doing at any moment. The VP of Sales should know the names of the three biggest customers. Functional specialists should know their content areas. If you find yourself saying “I don’t know” about things you should, go set up systems to stay informed.
