John Daily, successful executive, married with Raquel, loved woman, father of two children, after trying the success professional perceive that its life was if becoming difficult. She faced difficulties of relationships with its older son, and its son was not more affectionate with it as before, she was distant. John observed that its woman complained of misfortune, although the love of the husband, aconchego Of the family and all comfort that was in return. It blamed the husband to deny the necessary attention. One day it said that its head was being unjust with it, when blamed it of responsible for the insatisfação and the syndical movement of the employees of the company, although the company to have gotten growth under its management. Raquel courageous makes to know that all its problem was the lack of attention to the people, it to it needed ouviz them. With the career in crisis, the threatened marriage, the leadership in the work and questioned house, John was advised to make one removes for a rest and recycling of its thought, agreeing to go for a monastery to the north of Michigan, where together with more six retirantes it passed for a inesquecível experience. They had been part of the group, beyond it, Greg, a sergeant; Lee, a preacher; Teresa, of Hispanic, managing origin of a public school; Cris, a black, high and attractive woman, trainer of the teams of basquete of the State University of Michigan; Kim, a woman who did not enjoy of the attention of John at the first moment, therefore wise person not to accurately define the objectives of it in that place. Hoffman came across itself with Leonardo, an former-executive of great success and respected in the United States, who would be the leader of the group. Leadership, was the first subject argued in that meeting that would last one week. Together they had defined leadership as being the ability to influence people to work entusiasticamente aiming at to reach to the identified objectives as being for the common good. Later they had said that to be able it is the college to force or to coerce somebody to make its will, because of its position or force, exactly that the person preferred not to make it. Finally they had concluded that authority is the ability to take the people to make of good will what you want because of its personal influence. In that meeting, Len said that it was necessary to move of paradigm. She is necessary to establish new concepts. He concluded that in the organization of a company the employees must assume the top of the pyramid and the president is who must assume the position of the base, justified its thought. The leader does not have to impose its thought, it needs to convince its collaborators to be responsible for the success of what they make for somebody. Finally I found in a book, what I looked for in the people as abutment for what always I believed and I placed in practical, in occasions that I had chance to assume positions that demanded leadership. It was as a glove manufactured to size for me, when I came across with the Monge and the Executive - a history on the essence of the leadership. It took off all my doubts on my proper practical one. The model that always I applied was there, approved for one of the most respected executive of the United States, Leonard Hoffman, the Len. This is not the skill to lead of the absolute majority of the Brazilians who believe that to assume a position of executive and respected being he is to isolate themselves of that they are in lower positions in the hierarchy and to make face of bad. I was many times criticized by having a different position of this, but they left me in confusion how much to the adopted procedure. Reading the book of James C. Hunter, I identified myself with the teachings of Len.
