People-Centred Leadership Is Not Soft. It Is Structural.
People-centred leadership is not about being agreeable. It is the disciplined ability to:
Hold standards while building trust
Develop independent decision-makers
Coach for ownership, not compliance
Regulate emotion under pressure
In complex sectors, this is not optional. It is operational.

If your managers hesitate with conflict, struggle with accountability, or escalate decisions upward, your leadership system needs reinforcement.
