Following is one of the most underrated aspects of leadership. . . . I have seen many a good [military unit] underachieve, because someone. . . thought the commander was incompetent, and quietly worked to undermine his authority.
I think there is a misconception that when people are the face of something, or they're the voice, especially when they're young women, that they're being created or molded by someone else. I think more so than not wanting to be a singer I was afraid of being mislabeled as just a singer - not that that's a bad thing.
