The Importance of Permissiveness in Leadership
I was doing a good job administratively but I really wasn't so good with people, having been trained in construction by a very hot tempered Italian uncle. But the dominant personality, if we look at a rectangle and we put dominance on one side and permissiveness on the other side, there's a reason why someone takes that position. The good manager balances in the middle and knows when to assert and maybe throws weight around a little bit. When it's time to lighten up and be kind and gentle to someone because you know something tragic happened to them in their personal life. Needs to be a flexibility.
