i am a person with strong opinions and clear mind. i tend to see several sides of things and decide which way to go. Until the circumstances have changed and environment differs, i tend to stick to my plan. my readings of other leaders tends to favour this method. However, i have in recent times come in touch with people who would like to be leaders but seem very very opportunistic. this is a great idea, lets tie up with this person, lets move in with him.....nothing is moving in one direction but in several directions so the pace of real growth uneven, underpowered and unreliable.

If a vision wavers, is it strategic?

Management by betraying

If a marketing head runs down a company's product in order to make it look like he is making the product work, in spite of the product actually being very strong, what should the CEO do? Believe him or go out and check for himself. What if others in the organization dispute the claim. Should the still believe the marketing head and give higher budgets?
