Summary: | We find that we usually make the distinction between good and bad leaders by how they
make decisions and control those that follow them. A good leader makes good decisions
and controls the public, religious body or whoever else in a positive manor and a bad
leader the opposite. That is always how we do it. The problem with this is that the basis
of good and bad leadership is based on control, which is usually a breeding ground for
trouble. Why do we assume leaders are those that make decisions for other people?
That’s the consensus we see in politics. We want to ‘vote’ or choose someone to be our
leader that will make great decisions for us. Is it so we don’t have to? Is it so we have
someone to blame when things go wrong? We are starting to wonder if leadership in
Malaysia is to look drastically different then what we see elsewhere and usually from
what we want |
