One of a leader’s most important functions is to create an environment where trust and loyalty are the rule and not the exception. Fear based motivations don’t instill loyalty, create trust, build morale, inspire creativity, attract talent, or drive innovation. Remember that respect is earned, and fear is imposed. I Think Not.

From my perspective the issue isn't that struggles exist regarding subordinate leaders executing the vision and plans set forth by upper level leadership, for this is certainly a struggle in many environments. Rather the real question should be why such struggles exist in some organizations and not in others. while others fail to do so?
