| As a leader... I have always endeavored to listen to what each andevery person in a discussion had to say before venturing my ownopinion. Oftentimes, my own opinion will simply represent a con-sensus of what I heard in the discussion. I always remember theaxiom: a leader is like a shepherd. He stays behind the flock, lettingthe most nimble go out ahead, whereupon the others follow, notrealizing that all along they are being directed from behind. |
