Three Things You Can Do Now To Be A More Inclusive Leader
Most people think of leadership as a formal role that entails being in charge and having power over others, a high professional status, and a successful career. This makes leadership rather exclusive, and by definition, there must be a small number of leaders relative to the much larger number of followers, subordinates, etc.
While all of this is true, scientists tend to think about leadership in a different way. Fundamentally, they view leadership as a psychological process that enables individuals—who may or may not be formally in charge—to improve collective actions.

By way of background, Section 4960 imposes an excise tax equal to the corporate tax rate (21 percent for 2020) on that portion of a covered employee’s pay that exceeds $1 million or is treated as an excess parachute payment.

Many of these cases will likely be thrown out — but not all of them.
