MISSING IN ACTION

Leaders are people who don't compromise their values or beliefs to gain approval.  They live up to their own inner sense of things or how things should be, regardless of the current situation.  Leaders demand the best of themselves at all times and they work to bring out the best in their teammates.  And for this reason, leadership is often different than success.

Success is determined by the TEAM culture.  When you give the team what it expects, the team will reward that.  But a leader is someone who gives the TEAM what it needs, not what it expects.  

Without the presence of a strong leader on the floor, the team is much like a ship without a rudder...it wanders aimlessly with no real direction.
