Ugh. I have a few candidates who I would like to have this memorized. Damn, todayā€™s leaderā€™s meeting was all about these people coming up with ā€œbut that canā€™t be becauseā€.

This little speech might not be as eloquent as Churchill's, but so what? This is not mere initiative. Nor is it simple integrity. This, in all its optimistic glory, is leadership. Randy knew how dire their predicament was, but somehow he was able to summon the spirit and the optimism to rally his people to see, and to act as though they could see, a better future. Build a wall to slow the rising tide. Pull the tarpaulin over so that we can keep the water out of sight and out of mind. Believe that the rescuers are moving hell itself to stem these high waters. Believe, like I do, that we are going to get out of here alive. Believe.
These are the encouragements of a leader.
If you don't feel this way, if you are, by nature, a little jaded, disillusioned by the motives of man and the capriciousness of fate, take heart. First, you will be right more often than the optimist. After all, there are many more ways that things can go wrong than right. And, second, there are jobs for you, jobs in which an innate skepticism can serve as a distinct advantage in the legal depart-ment, for example, or strategic planning. (I'm joking. A little.) But, whatever you do, don't lead. Properly defined, the opposite of a leader isn't a follower. The opposite of a leader is a pessimist.
