People who are in leadership positions are frequently
tempted to manipulate the folks they lead in order to gain commitment and
conformity to whatever cause they represent.
Sometimes the leaders sincerely believe, “This cause is so good and so
right that these slight manipulations are justified.” (I know the feeling.) I believe it is important, however, for
leaders to resist the temptation to use manipulation. Even if the cause is noble and right,
manipulating the people we lead is not healthy for the leader or for those we
lead.
