James elaborated on businesses with several locations, and the damage to the company that occurs when offices quarrel. Energy expended in quarreling will result in damage to the company as a whole. When conflicts occur, if not properly handled will result in loss of productivity and create animosity between employees. Any disagreement should be handled immediately. James believed that as a leader, you must lead with authority.
Leadership can bring authority, power and respect.
Leadership can also bring financial reward for responsibilities deligated to you. When you imagine yourself as a leader, many times we focus on the positive aspects of the position. Leadership is a continual demand for performance. Leadership requires that you as a manager assume full responsibility for your performance and those assigned to you. Many times James would reiterate that a leader must instill loyalty to the company and reward employees when actions benefit the company.
