Or a crisis could strike, and a genuine crisis usually outstrips one person's ability to solve it because it must be viewed from many angles and may have many components. And speed counts. Inspiration and Cohesiveness Leaders inspire by articulating and evoking a vision of a goal everyone in the organization wants to work to achieve. Individuals may differ on how to achieve a particular goal, but in successful organizations, a leader is able to inspire consensus on the goal. Research has proven that teams produce better results than individuals, even geniuses.
Teamwork maximizes individual strengths and compensates for weaknesses.
Cohesive groups also outperform groups which lack cohesion with more talented members coaching the less talented, and all pulling together for the common good, rather than individual glory, a more successful approach to achieving group goals. If you aspire to be a leader, it is you who must take the initiative and lead the charge. If this crop of decisions doesn't seem to be working, either make them work or get them ditched. You take the lead and your team will follow, and within that delicate balance, both you and your team will assure success.
