RE: Does Self-Control Really Matters For Leaders?
I tend to disagree with the Forbes contributor, self control is absolutely pertinent. I see it as a foundation on which other leadership attributes can thrive on.
Even the Holy Book says, they shall accept a man's work but he himself rejected (paraphrased). This was David's problem, self control, and this borders on a whole lot of stuff. Without self control, no leader can be place as a perfect model of leadership.
You are right. Prudy Gourguechon in her contribution, wrote on the importance of self-control to leaders. But just like me, she also noticed that in most corporate settings, self-control is given little priority compare to other values like passion, vision etc and she made a case on why this is often done. She made the above case so she can disapprove it.
