Thanks for this fleshing out of Napoleon's character; the parallel to modern leaders is undeniable, as is the certainty of this kind of mindset leading to disaster if left unchecked.
Looking at politics is much more frustrating than working out issues within, as the latter is well under individual control, but politics takes on a life of its own with little regard to any one person's wishes. All we can do is as you are doing here, give witness to the benefits of letting people run their own lives with out endless interference from self-appointed experts who in the end are no better qualified than we ourselves are.
The forces, internal and external that propel individuals are a fascinating topic of inquiry. Am currently reading Walter Wink’s The Powers That Be. It shares a larger picture than I had previously considered. Also, I have just ordered your book The Inner-Work of Leadership. Am very much looking forward to reading it. More and more I understand when the inner and outer are in harmony excellent beneficial results become a reality.
