Organizational Style

From Rolling Stone:

"When I started this campaign," Obama told them, "I wasn't sure that I was going to be the best of candidates. But what I was absolutely positive of was that there was the possibility of creating the best organization. The way great things happen is when people are willing to submerge their own egos and focus on a common task. That's my old organizing mind-set. It's not just a gimmick, it's not just a shtick. I actually believe in it."

Gotta love it.

Incidentally, the article's worth reading as a primer for organizational style. I wouldn't believe everything it says -- they veer pretty closely to 'walks on water' at times -- but in terms of what a true leader needs in order to be successful, its not at all bad.
