Leadership does not involve power. You’re not the leader if you don’t have power - if you don’t have the decision-making authority. People who like authority for itself are never successful, but exercising authority is part of what is required from somebody in a responsible position. You’ve got to be able to do it, but when it’s an end in itself, usually you’re not successful.

I’ve got a few ideas of my own to deal with it.
1. Trim the number of buses by 25-30%.
2. Implement a system like Singapore where cars are charged higher if they want to enter an area.
3. Kick off cars that are over 10 years old.
4. Put a higher tax rate on car ownership.
The money can then be used to improve public transportation such as building more MRT & LRT lines.
The problem with the world today is that anyone can start one of these headhunting companies and tell their clients they can scour the Philippines simply by using social networks like LinkedIn. One guy thinks he can change the scene and make money by hiring amateurs with bad spelling and netiquette.
Digging up my email I found this one dated Sept. 25 from one of these companies. I don’t care about companies picking up amateurs but come on! Just look at that horrible English! And she was telling me she was hiring me for some big company to do pre-sales work. Give me a break.
