Are you feeling out of whack?  Are you working long hours for very little reward?  Is your team falling apart?  Are they giving too much, or not enough? 

Leadership is an exchange.  It is a relationship and requires effort, balance, and trust.  And, a common goal, or shared objective, is of supreme importance.  When one enters into this scenario, although there is a leader and a follower, both are equally important.  The project, or company, becomes the creation.  Both, or all parties, must feed the machine.  All energy is directed toward that purpose. The people in the play are essentially supporting the projected outcome.  In that process, all parties must also support each other.  Pride steps aside and the team must focus on the needs of the vision.
