Ok, I see your point. My view on leading is that it's never exclusive. The role of the leader is to make whatever the task is about happen; but if more people make it happen, so much the better. Granted that's indeed not everybody's view on leading, so it's good to clarify. Cheers, Nicolas -- Nicolas M.
