Respected? Or feared?

I admit: the temptation of total control is real.

Solving problems at once, imposing order, interpreting silence as approval... Who has never given in to the reflex of wanting to control and decide everything?

But a team is not a machine: it is a living organism, a mosaic of personalities and nuances.

Every word, every silence, every gesture shapes its energy, motivation and trust.

Respect for my leadership cannot be decreed: it is born from the trust offered, from genuine listening, from sincere recognition. It is built, gesture by gesture... and can be undone, stifled by fear, routine, or the desire to please.

What if, for a moment, I honestly looked at the effect of what I inspire... or what I impose?

Is it deep alignment I'm aiming for, or simple execution?

The emergence of ideas, or quiet submission?
