Post Power Syndrome

Many people think that being a leader is a burden. But, some people like to be chosen as a "forever" leader. The right terminology for this matter is Post Power Syndrome. (PPS). [In Korea, PPS means Pre-Paid Service - for cellular phone service].

It is very dangerous if someone put themselves to high on the top and don't want to go down because of some pride problem. The eagerness to be leader forever is not wrong at all. However, the world keeps running, the man is growing old, the knowledge is going better, the skill is getting improved and the character is getting mature. Everything may be obtained for the self-oriented, not the people-oriented.
So, it is not good for being a selfish leader anywhere you are. It is not good for getting everything for yourself, not considering others to grow up as mature as you are. Therefore, it is the time to think more about yourself, if you are a leader for many times in an organization. It is the time to give up yourself and give the authority to others who appropriate to sit in your place.

Anyway.... the PPS is not only about this matter...... many other things is considered as PPS either. I will write some more when I have time....
