I would say from a personal point of view that my biggest mistakes is as a leader have been where I have announced something rather than worked it out together. Basic strategic planning you get as many different people involved at the table and let them all give input create new document this new way of proceeding. Have everyone agree on it have everyone sign on sign on the dotted line and then spread it out because you bring people that others trust to the table and it works. Where there's so much alignment is just recognizing how systems don't give up easily systems want to maintain their current shapeYou know that they want to spring back to the existing forces that put them into existence as they are.
