About This Quote
The idea that leaders are not necessarily the ones that get the job done but the ones who bring it to conclusion, not necessarily consensus. The very act of leading is often seen as an act of persuasion because it is an act of creating consensus to achieve a goal. When people feel like they are being led, they feel more comfortable and willing to follow through on an idea or goal. If leaders try to engage the people in order to create consensus, people will see it as having to give up control and influence.
