I'm an informalist. And definitely a leader, but not in the corporate world, where I don't belong at all.
I like to cultivate relationships and formal metrics don't capture those well. Too much complexity and open-endedness.
When most people are happy I know I'm doing well.

It’s impossible to make everyone happy, yet that is like an important duty of a leader. What do you typically do when dissenting factions just can’t come to an agreement.

That's a good question and I don't think I can give you a thought-out answer right now.
I guess I encourage both sides to present their arguments, but in the end I use my position of authority to make a verdict. And those not happy can, ahem, fork themselves!

I think that as a leader, having the balls to make the final call is the best thing you can do
