The leader does not lead with internal certainty; a leader leads from internal peace. Certainty and peace are not the same. I have often experienced peace with a decision, even though I am uncertain as to its outcome. The leader who strives for certainty will live a life of anxiety. There is a difference between a good decision and the right decision. The leader’s goal is to make a good decision. Indeed, the leader’s goal should be to embark on a pattern of good decisions. Often enough, this will lead to the right outcome.
