The Gallup Success Survey
Some years ago, in the mid-1980s, the Gallup organization conducted one of the
most extensive surveys into the reasons for success ever conducted in America.
They selected 1,500 men and women whose names and biographies had
appeared in Marquis’s
Who’s Who in America
, the most prestigious register of
noteworthy individuals in the country.
They asked them, at great length, what they felt were the reasons why they had
become so well known and respected in their lifetimes. This group included
Nobel Prize winners, university presidents, heads of Fortune 500 corporations,
leading academics, writers, inventors, entrepreneurs, and even a high-school
football coach, a man who continued to have a significant impact on the lives
and personalities of the young people he trained.
