William --

Every leader (regardless of gender) I've encountered whom I would describe as great displayed emotions. They let the team know -- tactfully, professionally and with care -- when they were angry, pleased, sad, perplexed, etc.  We're not robots and will give our all for the leader who knows who to use their heart to lead. Emotions have a very real and needed place in the work place.

p.s. I wonder if those who can't condone a tear are OK with shouting.
