Brilliant assholes: Watch, develop or kick out?

Imagine this situation: "Stefan, don't you dare present this
bullshit idea with this stupid innovation. Over my dead body."
Silence. Dead silence. Stefan is chairing the most important
meeting of his year. Many top managers are in the room, Stefan is
chairing the meeting. 25 pairs of eyes are glued to him. He
answers: "Dear boss, I ask you to listen quietly for 15 minutes and
then I will show you why this stupid idea might be the best
investment for your next 5 years. Silence again, this time all eyes
on his boss. What is he doing now? Freaking out? Yelling? No, he
smiles, keeps quiet and listens. This behaviour was not helpful to
anyone at that moment. It was disrespectful. But unfortunately,
Stefan keeps coming across people who behave like brilliant
assholes. Brilliant because extremely good business results and at
the same time assholes because they show ZERO respect for other
people. And that's why today's title is: Brilliant assholes: Watch,
change or kick out? ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF Leadership
