The Twenty20 World Cup is sadly over. What a fantastic competition!

The final like the rest of the games was exciting and great viewing. And what about M.S.Dhoni's leadership? He got his team playing with spirit and enthusiasm and self-belief. The enjoyment was there to see; a really good demonstration of how "express yourself and enjoy yourself" can work.

Whilst memories of the cricket fades, the Rugby World Cup has started and I wonder at how "Leaders" are defined by their success, and yet they have often experienced failure for many times before... (Contrast England's performance up to and then in the quarter finals) So, does a leader get "better" when they win, and are losing leaders always losers?
