It is hard. Having vision is not enough that just takes a handful of mushrooms and a vision quest. Communicating the vision is the key. When people get it, they know how their daily job supports the vision. If they can not link their job to the vision, that tells a CEO that his/her communication is faulty or he/she has not helped his/her managers turn the vision into actual tasks. Either way, a CEO can monitor his/her success as a visionary by questioning and listening for employees to link their jobs with the company vision.
