Leadership and the corporate tendency to keep moving on

Big companies could be illustrated as a huge ship, sailing safely, navigating at all seas and in all weather conditions.

As such, it has huge advantages as size does matters. The ship has clear directions, the team is usually experienced and once it is on the move, it will reach its destination.

So, is it the team or the corporate tendency to keep moving on that make it what it is?

The answer, in my opinion is a combination of both, directed by great leadership.
