A world leader has just offered his resignation. This comes while his country is it’s worst recession in 16 years. It follows an attempt to shuffle around 900 billion of his nation’s currency in an effort to boost growth.
Is it Barack Obama you ask? Nope. Ferenc Gyurcsany, the premier of Hungary.
In a remarkable move, he’s resigning right in the middle of the whole mess. I still know embarrasingly little of Hungarian politics, but I do know a thing or two about leadership. If you recognize that you’re not competent to get the job done, your best form of leadership may be to get out of the way.
I don’t know if that’s the case with Mr. Gyurcsany, but it does set an interesting precident…
