The issue I see is too many times leaders are afraid of letting their personnel succeed or fail at a task, because if the individual fails the thinking is it will reflect upon them as a leadership failure. We should help give rudder when needed, but allow our personnel to run on their own, fall hard at times and still finish the job. The failure is only if we did not learn from any mistakes made when completing a task. You need to fall and earn some scars as the scars go well with the cockiness.Gary Olivinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758747359382999584.post-83710345092786440422014-02-11T10:38:06.398-05:002014-02-11T10:38:06.398-05:00I side with 31 Knot.
