In the paragraph box, write the main idea of the paragraph below. W. Michael Blumenthal, a corporate CEO, talks about the mistak

es he made in hiring: "In choosing people for top positions, you have to make sure they have a clear sense of what is right and wrong, a willingness to be truthful, the courage to say what they think and to do what they think is right, even if the politics militate against that. This is the quality that should really be at the top. I was too often impressed by the intelligence and substantive knowledge of an individual and did not always pay enough attention to the question of how honest and courageous and good a person the individual really was." main idea:

Answer:

People for top positions in organization must have clear sense of right and wrong and courage and honesty to say the truth.

Explanation:

The main idea of a paragraph is one which the authors wants to prove with the help of examples, evidences, or by appealing to emotions, logic, or moral values. This idea is the backbone and purpose of the paragraph.

In this case, the authors is trying to persuade the readers of the importance of clarity of thought, courage and honesty to say the truth for people on top positions on an organization. He opines that these qualities are even more important than intelligence and substantive knowledge. The author has just named these qualities, he is yet to prove (mat be later) that why and how these qualities are more important than other qualities.
