The happy(ish) middle ground is a sure-footed leader.
Not one with all the answers, because, yeah! But one that make you feel that no matter what, despite set-backs and cul de sacs, they’ll find a way through the mountains and down to the valley beyond. One with the desirable kind of certainty. The one you know will keep at it, out think the problems and bring the party home.
