Given a confidence in the thought process and reasoning behind in one’s decision, it can be far more prudent to dabble in leading others to make the same decision through a means as organic as you yourself have taken to realise it also. This method servers a special form of leadership to which speaks a higher volume of trust your team to give such decisions away seemingly in their hands. This method and others prey on the security that many dividuals feel when their authority treats them near equal. It is this minor power-play that serves a parenting context in fuelling adequate conditions for a better child to prosper also. Leading can be leading into solution that is given by the team you led, rather than simply giving the answer bluntly and simply.
Meditate.
