It's difficult to lead a small group of head-strong people.

It's difficult to be in a group which is being led by a less-than-stellar leader.
But in the corporate world, one finds oneself on both ends quite often (at least I have). I think many people just don't grasp the complexities (which is one reason the PC nonsense can creep in). On the show, it's quite easy to see that qualities like stubborness, indecisiveness, poor communication, and childish back-biting are things that kill a project. It's like Betamax vs VHS: having the better idea is a good thing, but better execution usually beats the poorly executed stroke of genius. Sometimes, just knowing how not to self-destruct is the key to success.
You should make a huge banner out of that phrase and have it posted on top of the gates at NEVERLAND!
