A successful business man was growing old and knew it was
time to choose a successor to take over the business.
Instead of choosing one of his Directors or his children, he
decided to do something different. He called all the young executives in his
company together.
He said, “It is time for me to step down and choose the next
CEO. I have decided to choose one of you.”
The young executives were shocked, but the boss continued.
“I am going to give each one of you a SEED today – one very special SEED. I
want you to plant the seed, water it, and come back here one year from today
with what you have grown from the seed I have given you. I will then judge the
plants that you bring, and the one I choose will be the next CEO.”
One man, named Jim, was there that day and he, like the
others, received a seed. He went home and excitedly, told his wife the story.
She helped him get a pot, soil and compost and he planted the seed.
