Uncertainty Being torn Destabilizing events Too little and too much information Unresponsive third parties In response, leaders are tempted to step in: Sometimes intervening is necessary But sometimes it is essential to step back Need to develop multiple capabilities, to: Do both – intervene and step back Discern when each is called for Conditions that simultaneously require and inhibit composure and resourcefulness

Too light a touch  diffusion of responsibility  No one feels committed to taking on the responsibility 2. Too heavy a hand  deflection of responsibility  People limit the potential contribution they could otherwise make to help meet responsibility The aim is to create an experience of you (the leader) and to generate in them an experience of themselves that enables them to deliver.
