Here is the very heart and soul of the matter. If you look to lead, invest at least 40% of your time managing yourself -- your ethics, character, principles, purpose, motivation, and conduct. Invest at least 30% managing those with authority over you, and 15% managing your peers. Use the remainder to induce those you "work for" to understand and practice the theory. I use the terms "work for" advisedly, for if you dont understand that you should be working for your mislabeled "subordinates," you havent understood anything. Lead yourself, lead your superiors, lead your peers, and free your people to do the same. All else is trivia.
