- Synopsis
- This chapter highlights how many people experience a rude awakening when they leave positions of authority. The benefits they enjoyed in the past were often more associated with their role or position than with their personal identity. It's critical--though hugely challenging--to distinguish oneself from one's job or one's organizational role. If a leader is anchored in his- or herself, and recognizes and respects his or her various but distinct roles, he or she is less vulnerable to the pains of leadership. This chapter was originally published as Chapter 9 of "Leadership on the Line."
