"The function of a leader within any institution: to provide that regulation through his or her non-anxious, self-defined presence."

Previous Quote

Anxiety leads to a narrowing of the field of attention, the so-called tunnel vision, and when people are anxious, they are unable to attend to the total situation as is necessary to enable them to act rationally, but impulsively do the first thing that comes into their heads which is usually determined by what others are doing at the same time.

— James A.C. Brown
