The effectiveness of a leader lives and dies on the decisions that leader makes. It is a leader's job not only to make decisions that will be successful but to make decisions in a way that will be followed as well. When a leader commits to a decision that they have made and does not waiver from it, at very least it gives off the appearance of strength. It is human nature to follow the leader who we view as the strongest; the one who we see as giving us the best chance of survival. However, humans also tend to follow leaders who make decisions that they see as most beneficial to them; either out of respect for the leader or fear of something else.
Imagine being alive in a time when more than 40,000 people were beheaded in the name of freedom. That's exactly what happened in the early stages of the French revolution. The French Revolution was a period of drastic social and political change in France and is thought to have been carried forward in the later years by one man, Napoleon Bonaparte.

The truth is Napoleon Bonaparte was a young man who wished to fulfill the ideals of the revolution at the beginning, with those ideals being equality, liberty, and fraternity in simple terms.
The leader should not be cruel or mean to the people but should know when to tough. The big difference is how they disagree most strongly on how a government should run and how they believe in war. They also disagree on when mercy should be given and how the money they own should be spent. Neither one of the ideas that they have for the government will work for the world today, because the world is not as good and peaceful as Lao-tzu describes in Tao-Te Ching, and not as chaotic or mean as Machiavelli says in The Prince.
Napoléon Bonaparte: A Heartless Ruler or a Great Influence Napoléon Bonaparte is seen by most as a butcher or a heartless dictator, but seldom do they remember the positive changes that Napoléon himself brought towards the world. Napoléon was an emperor who conquered lands and ultimately lost them in the end, hence the downfall of Napoléon. Napoléon is remembered as one of the greatest military conquerors in history (Napoleon I, 2004), but people have forgotten the side of him that has influenced and changed Europe. Napoléon has contributed and influenced, directly or indirectly, many of Europe’s culture in science, government, and even the arts.
(Meyer). This means that in this world there are so many bad people that the man has to make tough decisions between protecting his son and helping other people who may turn out to be bad. In those circumstances he has to choose protecting his son because he cannot trust the other people. “Most significantly, at the end of the novel when the father is dying, the boy begs and pleads with his father to kill him as well, to take him into death. The man tells him that he cannot do that and that the boy must keep going, he must keep carrying the metaphorical fire that represents the will to live.”

Napoleon Bonaparte has been the topic of historical debates and discussions since the end of his reign in 1815. Historians and scholars alike have analyzed his early years, his rise to power, his military conquests, his political actions during his reign, and his legacy on the modern state of France.
