In my business I am given a lot of direction and instructions on how to do things, but that does not mean that I never question theses instructions or do things my own way. Maybe we need to incorporate being an outsider and an insider. The idea of leadership does not command us to do things differently all the time. I have learned to incorporate societies ideas and my own ideas to produce an effective way of management. Company policy tells me that if an associate steals that I should terminate them immediately.
Society perceives stealing as a terrible crime worthy of punishment and immediate action.
After speaking to Tom I found that this was not my policy and that everyone deserves a second chance. I believe we should never lose the idea of being outsider, the willingness to go against what you do not agree with. Never accept something just because society says it should be. There fore any progress depends on the unreasonable man. To me this reiterates the idea that you should always be authentic.
