A Differentiator That Few People Realize The Power Of

There are many people who see Leadership as a Path to Power, or an Easy Life.

However, those who end up in Leadership Positions soon discover that they become Miserable if these were their Goals.

The Truth is that Leaders have very Little to No True Power.

The Title of “Leader” means Nothing to People.

Just look at the Return-to-Office “Mandates” that Leaders have been making, Unsuccessfully.

Dell just had 50% of their US Workforce (Unsurprisingly) Completely Ignore the “Mandates”.

Or go a bit further back and look at Grindr who had 45% of their Workforce Quit instead of going back into the Office.

No matter what “Title” you hold, or how large of an Organization you are in charge of, you have No Power when the Workforce decides they Do Not like Your Choices.

Then, if you thought that Leadership would make your Life easier, you’ll be Terribly Surprised when you discover that “Everyone” else’s Stress is now “Your” Responsibility.

So, instead of Life becoming Easier, it has now become Exponentially more Difficult.
