In my opinion though, although leadership is one topic which is spoken widely in the management arena, i feel we should learn from the history of other leadership styles, but should not brand ourself to a specific style.

And this is the critical point in every leader’s development – the act of giving up one of the very things that got you to this point in the first place. So I had to fight, with every ounce of my being, not to control and micro-manage my team as I adjusted my thinking. I couldn’t do everything myself anymore. I was a “doer”.
