On Leadership and Simplicity without Oversimplification

People don’t let you occupy too many categories in their mind. You are either this type or that type. It is hard for people to imagine that you can be both types. It is harder for them to imagine that you can be multiple types. The wise leader will understand the difference between who he is and who people think he is. This calls for simplicity without oversimplification. The leader must communicate out of his complexity with unfeigned simplicity.
