you need to go back to school on this one! The definition of a leader is "someone who has the ability to get the best out of their people for any given situation" I had a boss in war! who was the best boss ever in peace time but when in war was not there for us. We had one guy stand in when it all went horribly wrong (ie when the sh*t hits the fan) and he could not do it either. You have to do the whole lot not just one or the other.
