Sgt LaBranche, Sir; Well, Gee, Honestly ? .. More than likely NO.. However Sgt., I believe that you have defined a Major element of what it takes to be a True Leader.. A very difficult quality to maintain, but a very, very powerful quality to have.. thanks.. Semper fi.. Mike

When you lead, not only do you have to take responsibility for your own actions, you also must take responsibility for the actions, or inactions, of those who are your subordinates. To do that effectively, you have to keep reminding yourself: "I can delegate authority. I cannot delegate responsibility."
