“Management is about persuading people to do things they do not want to do, while leadership is about inspiring people to do things they never thought they could”. . . Steve Jobs.
I’ve read a few books about Jobs and it seems he may have been a bit of a paradox in this area. Still a good quote, though.
Mitigating Chaos 
Jobs was a large paradox. I knew people who worked for him. On one side he was an inspiration, but could also be a tyrant. One person I know told a story of Jobs being told that something he wanted to do would be against the US tax laws. Jobs reported replied, “Okay, let’s get the law changed.”

I think most of us have a little bit of paradox in us…
