Recently, I realized that this coffee shop that I frequent serves wonderful coffee, however I was feeling guilty about the syrup they add in which makes it so tasty and considered no longer going there. But then I realized that it just makes me happy. I have a routine of dropping my kids off at school and then stopping for a cup of sugary coffee, and I listed to my worship music, and that kick starts my day. SO, I\'ve decided to embrace the calories because until there is a healthy smoothie shop on the way to the highway, this is part of my happy for me.

If you don\'t set aside time to see a place, it doesn\'t matter where the travel takes you because you will never experience it.\n\nI\'ve made it a personal policy to try as often as possible to book at least one day before and/or one day after an event to go exploring. Not only does this let me see and understand more about a place,  it also gives me \"thinking time\" to either prepare for an event or to digest and integrate what I learned.\n\nIn my experience, it is rare for entrepreneurs to do this. I think that is a mistake. You are already taking a lot of time to travel to a place, the incremental cost of one extra day is small in comparison. What I typically hear is \"I\'m too busy\".

Not only is it far more sustainable, but it is also more likely to be based on a far deeper response to a leader\'s actions or works.\n\nThe quote included at the end of your response reminds us that leadership is a toolbox.

I have seen the full spectrum of leadership styles &amp; fads and had the opportunity to work under, in &amp; from them.\n\nIn my opinion, only the Servant Leader style truest works in the long run. It combines the humility to listen so one\'s subordinates will speak truth (not false, misleading platitudes) to authority and the courage to confront in a constructive manner all g with the integrity to earn the respect and natural authority that can only be demanded by the other styles.\n\nIt is disruptive because it is counterintuitive and requires the courage to risk being seen as an equal and maybe even a learner by some of the people we are seeking to lead. That firsn\'t look \"like a Boss!\" ... which is ironically and fittingly why it works so effectively.\n\nLong may the disruption continue, my friend. Having know you now for over 30 years, I am grateful for the integrity, consistency, caring, honesty, compassion and courage you have always shown to all.

It is an \"emergent social property\" and cannot be taken out of the social context. It is not the behaviour of the leader that is important but how that behaviour is interpreted by others.

Looked at this way it explains why \"leadership\" is perceived differently in the military compared with commercial organisations or the social services. Alan uses the term \"success\" but is this an interpretation of the outside observer or team members?\nUltimately team members or even voters will \"willingly and enthusiastically accept the authority of their leader\" (a definition of leadership) if they perceive that their manager or leader delivers rewards to them. Different teams look for different rewards, be that financial or social or psychological thus \"leadership\" differs according\nto the social situation (contingency model).\nLeadership is not about being nice, it is not about so called \"qualities\" of the leader it is all about the experience and expectations of team members -it is an attribution- it is about delivering rewards.

Miller\'s e-book, \"Why is it so hard to shut up?\" I think we often make leadership extremely complicated.\n\nThe reality is that the greatest leaders have always been philosophers and theologians. Those who thought deeply and grappled with the reality of the human condition. They asked the hard questions about integrity and meaning. Because of that, they became leaders through a process of evolution and transformation rather than mass production and fabrication. Their leadership was born out of vision rather than mere pragmatism.\n\nListening is a difficult art with which many, including myself, struggle.
