Treating Leaders Like They’re Remedial

Todd shares a great post quoting General Patton saying, “Don’t tell people how to do things, tell them what to do and let them surprise you with their results.”

I love it.  Understand when you need to apply situational leadership and help people along on a more basic level.  But, a lot of time, people don’t grow because they haven’t gone through the trauma of figuring it out for themselves.  So, quit talking to people like they’re remedial and start expecting them to step up as leaders.
