"while efficiency is critical and often a competitive advantage, it is a problem when it becomes a mindset that is applied to everything we do; when it becomes an excuse for our lack of real connection. Faster and easier is not always better. As leaders, we have to know the difference. Some things are better over time. There is no such thing as efficient leadership. If efficiency is digital, leadership is analog.
Leadership is about influence and mobilizing people to achieve a common goal. This is done through relationships. Relationships do not benefit from efficiency."

effectiveness or people focus (getting the right things done by others) trumps any day efficiency or task focus (doing things in right way for maximum production/ RoI).
Leadership is so much more than getting things done quickly.
