Rajeev Peshawaria Learn the Dance of the Naked Autocrat Successful leaders are not people pleasers. They are future-creators pursuing the right purpose backed by the right values. People desire strong leaders. They want to understand where they are going and that it is a better place than where they are today. To be successful at managing that dance, leaders must be autocrats. But today’s autocrat doesn’t bury the team with rules, procedures and policies, they give them the freedom to operate within a set of values. Be autocratic about values and purposes while remaining super humble and respectful of people. Rajeev Peshawaria asked 16,000 people in 28 countries, and without exception autocratic leaders were preferred. Does that surprise you?
