If your company is facing a bankruptcy, the last thing employees want to hear is, 'Let's work on this together,' ... They want leaders who say, 'This is what we need to do.'
In my opinion, I would not want to work for me.
The bottom-line definition for me is that a leader is someone with followers, ... and given how tight talent is today, if you don't work to keep your followers, you will not continue to be a leader.
