Perhaps the biggest administrative part of leadership are these two duties:
- making decisions
- trusting the decisions others make
The pitfall is waiting too long, waffling, worrying, and ultimately, not deciding – and getting left behind or becoming irrelevant.

Jeff,
Wow – those two concepts speak deeply to the concepts of 1) surrounding yourself with trustworthy people who provide you with wise counsel in your decision-making, and 2) trusting the delegation process to do what it is supposed to do. So without trust, the administrative part of leadership becomes rather cumbersome. Without trust, the weight of leadship weighs heavily on one’s shoulders.

Bob, well said. Being a leader is tough. Same goes for parenting – which is the toughest leadership job invented.
