By the fact of their humanity, every leader is at best in process. We must never expect our leaders to be beyond human nature. We must always expect them to grow in the alignment of their lives to core beliefs and morals and in the competencies that lead to greater effectiveness. Control One of the myths of contemporary leadership centers on the concept of control. Many continue to view corporate leaders as authoritarians who rule by control.
Many corporate leaders continue to pretend that they actually have far-reaching, autocratic control.
The truth is that a leader's control is not what it used to be. They're losing power. Power doesn't come from their position in the hierarchy any longer. In most instances, leaders continue to determine who keeps their job and who does not. This kind of control is largely inconsequential in today's corporate environments.
