It's easy to get things done if you're a difficult bastard. People may not like it, but if you yell loud enough they'll often do it. At least as long as you're yelling. Relating it back to Jim Collins's books (like "Good to Great"), the difficult geniuses create phenomenal successes that peter out once they leave, but the easy going geniuses build organizations that are great on their own and can generate success without all the yelling. Inspiration is more powerful than browbeating, but it's also a whole lot harder.
