Is Leadership About Always Keeping The Glass Half-Empty?

You see a glass with water in it. The water is at the halfway mark in the glass. This leads to the question: Is the glass half empty? Or is the glass half full? How would you choose to describe it? A glass half-filled with water is frequently used to demonstrate the difference between optimist and pessimist leaders. The optimist leader sees the glass as half full, focusing on what is important and, by extension, serving the need, at least in part. The pessimist leader perceives the glass as half-empty and focuses on half of the water is gone or what is missing and hence inadequate.
