People Effective leadership is not about control. He tired of the game and went off to do something else. It never worked. It was a lesson in manipulation, not leadership. Leadership means understanding the skills and driving force of individuals and bringing out the best in them.
Some people are self-directed doers.
They want to get things done. A leader recognizes this and gets out of their way so that they can complete their objectives. These people don't need anyone to define their tasks or tell them what steps to take next. They know what they want to accomplish. An effective leader simply supports them and cheers them on with occasional briefings.
