Mike Cirba,
You can't replace truely great leadership, sub-contractors are interchangeable.
One only has to look back at all the classical golf courses that were disfigured over the years to understand the importance of truely great leadership, or what happens to a golf course when it's lacking.
We wouldn't be having half the discussion we're having if clubs hadn't changed, scarred, and disfigured their golf courses over the years, and the process continues, unabated.
For every restoration we hear about it seems that some classic club is about to demolish forever, the design integrity of their course.
Leaders and visionaries are the key components,
subcontractors are interchangeable
