In his post on Imagination and Discipline (January 2004), Aidan rightly indicates that leadership often involves generating new choices for the people and organizations under this leadership.
However, we can sometimes be paralysed by too many choices. And in the consumer society we may have the illusion of choice.
Leadership also involves the renunciation of certain choices. Making commitments, burning your bridges. Perhaps this is what Aidan means by discipline, but I think that word sounds too static.
