2. Always shoot first. Every good leader should be willing to do what he or she asks of her team. One of the reasons for the loyalty of the ragtag crew of Serenity, the ship Malcolm Reynolds captains in Firefly, is that Mal will throw himself into battle to protect his team. Whenever he has a crazy scheme or rescue mission in mind, he takes the first plunge. Lesson learned? Show your crew that you're willing to take a bullet for them, and they'll do the same for you.
Read the rest. 'Nuff Said.

To divide every county into hundreds, of such size that all the children of each will be in reach of a central school in it."
-In a letter to Thaddeus Kosciusko, 1810
