3. Fear forces people out• If you have a team of people that you see as the future of

your business you need to be realistic about the different kinds of leadership that each member of the team requires.

•  Fear as a motivator is a big long-term risk, as most people prefer to be inspired rather than ruled with an iron fist.

• Of course at times, a sense of urgency needs to be created but uncovering sources of individual motivation or motivators will always serve you better in the long run than ruling through fear.
