It's interesting that Trump became the leader of free world by embodying the opposite of many of these precepts (he'd probably call someone adhering to them a loser or weakling). Epictetus would not be surprised, nor care.

I have been thinking to write a book about leadership and use the opposite of what my managers are doing, and I am pretty certain that many on this board could do the same. But then, do I really care? Would that change anything? There are plenty of books andstories providing good leadership examples.

There are also plenty of studies supporting the observation than cheaters have an easier time making financial gains, no matter how good or bad they actually are at their job, as long as they can pretend and manipulate the opinion of a group of enablers.

I refuse to be a cheater or an enabler. That I do care, and that is something I can do, and have done.
