Summary: One of the most popular Fortune articles in many years was a cover story called �What It Takes to Be Great.� Geoff Colvin offered new evidence that top performers in any field--from Tiger Woods and Winston Churchill to Warren Buffett and Jack Welch--are not determined by their inborn talents. Greatness doesn�t come from DNA but from practice and perseverance honed over decades.
