Comment: The stronger and more experienced a leader, the more actively he suppresses all quarrels, the less strife and aggression in the pack, the friendlier the atmosphere and the more cohesive the group. Suppressing quarrels can be done with quite harsh methods.

My Response: Such is the law of any community, even an animal one. Not to mention human.

Question: So should one be both hard and soft at the same time?

Answer: I do not know about being soft. But he must be very decisive, confident, and willful.

Question: So all the quarrels, all the poor attitudes, slander, suppress it all?

Answer: Of course.

Comment: Tough… He will not be loved.

My Response: They will fear him; this is most important. Therefore, they will respect and obey.

Question: Is this leadership? He has a goal ahead of him—to bring his pack…

Answer: When with wolves, do as wolves do.

Question: The chief leads the pack, leads his own out of traps, plans and begins the hunt; he is the first to rush at enemies and prey.

What does it mean to be the first at everything?

Answer: To take on all the blows, all the issues that arise in his pack.

Question: Are we talking about human society?

Answer: Yes.

Question: So he is the first to take all the blows? Is he worried about all this?

Answer: It is like his own family.

Question: You perceive the leader as a father? And society as my family?

Answer: Yes.

Question: And if, as we have now, there was a blow-up, does he take responsibility?

Answer: If he does not take responsibility, he is immediately removed. There is no such thing among animals. He has to assume responsibility.
