Central to Barlag's argument is the distinction between power and force. When leading his own organization, Caesar never used brute force to motivate his followers.

The future belongs to those who stop doing what machines can do—and start owning what they can’t. AI didn’t eliminate work. It redefined where human value actually lives. As automation accelerates, speed, volume, and technical execution are becoming cheap. What’s becoming rare is judgment—the ability to decide what matters, what doesn’t, and where attention should be spent. The people gaining the most leverage from AI aren’t trying to keep up with machines. They’re stepping out of execution and into direction. They’re delegating the routine and reclaiming the decisions that shape outcomes.

Preeminent leadership scholar Linda Hill, along with former Pixar tech wizard Greg Brandeau, MIT researcher Emily Truelove, and Being the Boss coauthor Kent Lineback, found among leaders a widely shared, and mistaken, assumption: that a "good" leader in all other respects would also be an effective leader of innovation. The truth is, leading innovation takes a distinctive kind of leadership, one that unleashes and harnesses the "collective genius" of the people in the organization.

Alexander, Hannibal, Caesar: Each was a master of war. Each had to look beyond the battlefield to decide whom to fight and why; to know what victory was and when to end the war; to determine how to bring stability to the lands he conquered. Alexander, Hannibal, and Caesar had to be not only generals but statesmen. And yet each was a battlefield commander, a strategist, a leader of men - in short, a warrior.

Leaders relied on it to stay calm when the world was on fire. Tea invites a slower mind—and deeper understanding. So I wrote this book as a companion to that moment.
