“You don’t lead by hitting people over the head that’s assault, not leadership”
— Dwight D. Eisenhower

Simplified Meaning:
Leadership isn't about being aggressive or using force to control people. Imagine a coach yelling and pushing players to perform better. Instead of motivating them, this scares and frustrates them, leading to poor performance. Effective leadership means guiding, inspiring, and supporting others to achieve their best. For example, a good boss listens to their employees, addresses their concerns, and helps them grow. By showing respect and understanding, a leader builds trust and cooperation. This approach brings out the best in people and makes everyone more successful.
