Vision and Execution determines a Leader

I came across this Gartner's chart some time back.When I came in acquaintance with it, It is said to determine Leaders in a particular IT product. It segregates the players into 4 different categories based on their execution ability and their ability to complete their vision as seen below.



This chart can also be used to evaluate people belonging to any Niche to determine Leaders, Challengers and Visionaries. It helps any person to sort out good players.

The chart clearly shows that at some instance Challengers can join with Visionaries to become Leaders. I think IT giants like IBM, Google buys some small concerns to become Leaders in a particular field or technology. They have the "ability to execute" but remains as Challengers in a particular field or technology. In order to become Leaders, they sort out visionaries and acquire them.

One can also define a Leader based on this chart as, "Any Person or Industry having the outstanding ability to complete the vision with outstanding ability to execute further or the vice verse will be the leader of all time."

My Learning : Be a Visionary and sharpen the skill sets to gain the ability to execute in order to become a Leader.
