Realizations

Realization 1: IF a CEO does not purchase, read, or promote books on change or leadership without external prodding, THEN there is probably little chance that one of the enlightened, unwashed masses will have a snowball's chance in hell of successfully changing the corporation in their lifetime.

Realization 2: IF a Board of Directors has to hire a CEO from the outside in order to effectively change the corporation, THEN there is probably little chance of sustaining any real, systemic changes - unless the CEO comes in and is not afraid to "remove the cancerous cells from the body."
