Low Effort/Low Results Leader

I have long been an advocate, proponent, evangelist, and general pain in the butt about Command Excellence.  I would like to write a bit about what I am calling the "Low Effort Leader".  This type of leader is insidious and is antithetical to ever attaining Command Excellence.  Traits of the "Low Effort Leader" include:

• Persistent tardiness
• Can't seem to do anything on time
• FITREPS are late (except his)
• Awards are late (except his)
• Meetings start late and end even later
• Can't seem to arrive at command functions on time
• persistently keeps DHs/DIVOFFs/Sailors waiting for his 'grand entrance'
• Persistently inaccessible
• Officers have to jump through hoops to speak with this leader
• Keeps people waiting in the staging area outside his office
• Never able to answer phone calls (Please leave a message at the tone)
• Don't ever expect an answer to your letter or e-mail from this guy
• Too brilliant to communicate to "the masses"
• Never explains anything to the command
• Persistent 'station keeping' - we're just doing the job
• Command and Sailors are not moving forward
• 'Good' is good enough
• Let's stay in our lane; we don't want to draw any attention to ourselves
• That's not part of our Mission, Functions and Tasks

 I'll give the "Low Effort Leader" one thing - He sure is persistent.
