October 20, 2011 in Leadership with 9 Comments

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

  • The leader has information
  • The leader has authority
  • The leader has power
  • The leader has position

When a leader begins to abuse power

  • Some leaders leave
  • Some followers become miserable
  • Some followers stagnate in fear
  • Some leaders plan a coup

Any questions?
