Catabolic leaders operate in their own little worlds. They do what they do, and they rarely, if ever, stop to think about the consequences of what they are doing (and how they are doing it). If these leaders do assess, they self-assess – that is, they don’t ask for input from anyone around them, because they dread that in doing so they may appear weak. In addition, adverse leaders know that they are right, and others are mistaken (or ineffectual, or idle) – so why would they ask for their feedback?

Anabolic leaders on the other hand, are always working “on themselves.” Not only are they willing to take a concrete look at themselves, but they also solicit, and consider, feedback from others, as they know this information is imperative if they are to continue to grow and mature.
