The Right to be Needed . Can I use my gifts? In the long run, this most effectively meets the group need.

Love is an undeniable term, and its manifestations are both subtle and infinite. It has only one absolute condition: unlimited liability! As soon as one’s liability for another is qualified to any degree, love is diminished by that much." - Robert Greenleaf

We must trust one another to be accountable for our own assignments. When that kind of trust is present, it is a beautifully liberating thing. Even trust will not make the nature of the future more certain. But the uncertain nature of the future does not necessarily make leadership a hazardous occupation.

Intimacy is at the heart of competence. It has to do with understanding, with believing, and with practice. It has to do with the relationship to one’s work.
