i think i'd rather be a boss after reading that

maybe it's not the intent of the article, but a boss sounds like someone who gets things done and takes charge and doesn't mess around, while the leader is some eerie eyed sort of character, dreaming about utopia and not really facing reality... the boss is just pragmatic taking care of business and the leader is just all whiny and begging people to please listen to what he's got to say... the boss just says: this is how it is and you will like it...

I just wanted to thank you

I just wanted to thank you for posting this. I feel like it's been writen, saving many other the people of trying to write the same. I can only imagine how much time and experience it took to create this article. I've found it very useful to study myself, and to study with other people. It would definately be intimidating to someone who isn't quite ready to be a leader, but once they've made a leap in their confidence and believe in their own vision, it's an excelent guide, very challenging and direct. Thank you to the Narconews people who posted it and the people in Hondorus who created it.
