What's more important in a leader - experience or judgment? Ask a Question

It takes a combination of both and you only get that with experience.

Absolutely, I agree.

agree

such a nice and hard question!i agree with wingnutt. but i guess experience is more important!

Good judgement. Experience is what you get from bad judgment, by definition.

"Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment."

a nice quote, and a chicken-and-egg conundrum.

If it takes a lot of experience to produce good judgment, that is an indicator of a problem. Good judgment developed from a small body of experience indicates a fast learner. Thoughtfulness can substitute for a lot of experience. And the experiences of others can also be very instructive. The experience of crashing 5 planes does not make one a good pilot.

Judgment, no question. Experience helps, but it doesn't guarantee good judgment.

Your experience tells me what your judgment is like, so it's the judgment I want to know about.

Experience is the best teacher..it can mean knowing where a guess can be judgment.

outdated experiences are useless if you're an old dinosaur. judgment is okay, but innovation and out of the box thinking are what we need right now, more than anything else.
