Basically I feel that 80% of all the officers I have seen are
supervisor rather than leader.
To me : Leader are
1) One who is able to motivate
2) One who make people work for him willing, without
complain.
3) One when subordinates will go to in times of distress
4) One whom the subordinates will trust in
Supervisors are
5) One who get the work done (same as point 2 but does not need the
subordinates to work for them willing. They can use whips or
anything that I care to obtain their objectives)
To me, most of the officers are just slave drivers (and thus fall
into supervisor category). They dun motivate (some dun even bother
to know your name. To them, we are just a tool to help them
promote.)
