Even more crazy is that we don't drink our well water, and NYC's reservoirs are near us. One of NYC's two aqueducts is only a mile away from my house, and the other one passes through the next town over from us.....

I have a team of 17, we are the most profitable group in the company and the "value added" division.
I lead by a simple principle that was drilled into me years ago "Mission first, People ALWAYS" (for those that served, you've likely heard this multiple times, I did not have the honor of military service, but learned from some exceptional people) In short, we have a mission; the way we do it is with our people. One is no more important than the other. My job is to make sure they are properly trained, healthy, properly equipped, and held accountable to the highest standards, all the while making sure they understood our core values and the company mission. Publicly, they get the credit and I take the blame. We have super low turnover on the team, and in the last 3 years, 4 have been promoted (2 have developed into exceptional leaders themselves). We have 1 retiring this year and 1 next year, other departments have members already asking to transfer to ours once the retirements are close. |

You can lead by dominance or influential. Most people do both depend on the situation and condition. The dominance and successful CEO was Jack Welch (GE). Nowadays, the influential type is predominant. The challenge is you have to be patient to influence your team members. However, the quarter earnings and hence your boss don't give you time to practice your influential leadership.
