A confident leader invites discussion and dissent, treating differing opinions as valuable rather than threats, creating a more collaborative environment for decision-making.
Defensiveness in leadership often stems from insecurity; when leaders feel they must defend their choices, it indicates doubts about their role and expertise.
Leaders who openly acknowledge their vulnerabilities and invite alternative perspectives show a stronger command of their role, valuing collective wisdom over personal pride.
When leaders perceive disagreement as a threat, they undermine their own authority, mistaking dissent for a challenge to their leadership rather than a chance to engage.
