A person with a strong leader personality amongst a group of people who he does not really respect or care for and does not want to lead.

Which begs the question, what's he doing with them in the first place, and if he doesn't want to lead them, why's he bothered?

As many potential leaders have said

" I'm supposed to be leader of the revolution.
Excuse me,did you see which way it went ? "

Well you could say the same for Hitler. When his people could not give HIM the victory
he wanted he turned on his people. Told the leaders of Industry /etc to destroy everything in Germany(the orders were not followed). So a strong leader with no empathy for his people can be a bad thing. They will likley take the people on a path they do not want or need to travel anyway.
A good place for such a person would be prison warden :)

Hmmm, yeah ... if you were unfortunate enough to find yourself in that situation, it wouldn't be much fun.
Especially if you all had to work together to get something done.

lol .... Even worse if the person with the strong leader personality is your boss

Uncomfortable.

emp

I don't always agree with you, but this is the first time I haven't understood what you were talking about.

I have often found great value in the insights about human nature revealed by your machete mind. You often see things that everybody else has missed. I hope you will say more about this.

And those who desire power and authority are those least capable of weilding it responsibly.

The catch-22s of human nature really suck.

So, perhaps emp was a douche after all??

I kind of liked him at first, but he could never get off his negativity high-horse.

Apparently he was an arrogant douche who wasn't quite as smart as he thought.

As soon as you tried to get him to make and defend his own statements, he shut up in a hurry. He was only comfortable ripping other people down. WTF made him think he was worthy to be "our leader" in the first place.

I'm sorry emp, but you'll have to do better than being haughty and derisive. You could'nt lead a pack of hungry wolves to fresh meat. :twisted:
