control

Why do we want to have control over others? I heard about incidents related to the work environment where leaders, founders are absolute control freaks. When you hire someone, they have a role to play within the organization. They are given responsibility and expected to deliver. A leader can focus elsewhere.

I thought leadership is all about serving, like having a star trek team and letting individuals come up with a solution.

Do we have control over ourselves, our thoughts, and the monkey mind? How are we thinking of leading as a control freak?
