“It’s funny, but sometimes the more senior a person’s leadership position is, the less likely she is to feel in control. New CEOs are often the most surprised by this. They have been waiting all their careers to have the ultimate control, and they discover, often much to their shock, that they feel less in control than they did in other positions. It’s almost as if when we get to the top there is nowhere we can look for someone more powerful who can actually control the thing. These CEOs finally have to stop believing in the myth that someone, somewhere is fully in charge and begin to believe in the myriad forces that combine to create the future.”
