A leader and his or her subordinates have a relationship that has certain similarities to a parent’s and his or her kid’s. Though the manner and level of their relationships might differ, how a leader plays a role in the development of his or her followers can also be seen in how a parent influences his or her child. Both parents and leaders have the responsibility of not only directing what the kid/subordinate is supposed to do, but also in coaching them on a variety of subjects. Life and work should not be limited to just merely “living” and “working”, people do demand other aspects of life like personal fulfillment, happiness and trust, and they tend to get that from some of the best parents and leaders. Remember, how parents and bosses treat their kids/subordinates can drastically enrich or damage the quality of life of the person.
