D. probe for weaknesses in the substance and details.
Bossidy and Charan point out, "The leader who boasts of her hands-off style or puts her faith in empowerment is not dealing with the issues of the day. Leading for execution is not about micromanaging. Leaders who excel at execution immerse themselves in the substance of execution and even some of the key details. They use their knowledge of the business to constantly probe and question. They bring weaknesses to light and rally their people to correct them."
