The most productive leaders I know have the ability to be extremely nice, very civil and always polite while maintaining the ability to be direct, focused, and candid.

If efficiency starts diluting productivity rather than increasing it something is woefully amiss. So much so, that I have really come to cringe every time I hear the word efficiency.

Leadership is a full-contact sport, and if you cannot address conflict in a healthy, productive fashion then you should not be in a leadership role. Unresolved conflict often results in a loss of productivity, stifles creativity, and creates barriers to cooperation. If so, you likely have issues with conflict.
