Interaction Paper: Management 521
Major Message: what is the major message of the chapter?
The beginning quote in the chapter says it best…that leadership is basically about humanity. Doing the right thing is usually not a hard or difficult thing to do.

"…The great leader is seen as servant first…"-Robert K. Greenleaf. This is a fragment from a sentence in an essay
The players have a great deal of respect for one another. Though each player obviously wants his moment in the spotlight, they work well together, putting the team before personal gains.
