Ask yourself this question…Who is more loyal; an employee who has been with the company a long time but is an under-performer, or a less tenured employee who always goes the extra mile and consistently exceeds expectations? or implying that it is unlikely to have high performance if most people stick around for a long time?

While confidence can be mistaken for arrogance, and vice-versa, they are clearly not interchangeable terms. I think not. When you think of yourself as a leader do you view yourself as having the quiet confidence of David or the boastful arrogance of Goliath?

Many times it is simply because companies have been doing the same things, in the same ways, and for the same reasons for so long, that they struggle with the concept of change. So why do so many established and often well managed companies struggle with disruptive innovation? or my personal favorite, “We need to focus on our core business.”

Long story short; if a leader receives a vote of non-confidence from their subordinates…game over. Only those leaders who can quickly recognize and adapt their methods to the situation at hand will be successful over the long haul. Any leader is only as good as his or her team’s desire to be led by them.

The sad fact is that many business people are absolutists in that they only see things in terms of rights and wrongs. Thinking in terms of “ my way &# is right and therefore “ other ways &# are wrong is the basis for polarizing any relationship, which quickly results in converting discussions into power struggles.
