One of the greatest leaders in human history, gets a bad rapport, and that is Napolean Bonapartte. He had many governing principals that we know about, because he wrote them down and constantly explained why he was doing what he was doing. He was wickedly clever, but I think the most important thing is that he was always learning. Sure he made some major mistakes that probably led to his downfall, but he was constantly pushing himself to learn. He knew what people were workiing on in his organizataion, and he strove to understand it. He let people do what they did best, but was always seeking to understand so that he could be present and relevant in conversation and in planning meetings. Of course he had many faults, as we all do, but he was certainly an example in how to constantly force yourself to be learning. Guy
