  27. A Real Leader “Help their teams be successful, the ‘bearers of water and removers of boulders’, who have the backbone to resist unreasonable demands, who clearly explain the impact of management decisions, who can motivate the team to meet a crisis deadline ONLY when it is really a crisis and who otherwise understand the importance of sustainable pace. They fight the petty fights and protect their teams from the dysfunction around them.” ~ Shane Hastie <ShaneH@softed.com>
