  No but, let me put it this way. If you're yelling at me, than I hate you. I have no loyalty to you.. and the next time I see an opening, I'm fucking you over first thing. Everyone who follows you, is pretending to do so. No one is on your team. They may even secretly be fucking you over while pretending to bend over backwards for you. You've reached your goal yes.

  I think they refer to the meaning of the word "leading" as opposed to meanings like "commanding" or "bossing around". While agreeably there might be no "true" leader to be found on this world, the words mentioned above still differ in meaning and definition. Someone who leads does something else than someone who commands or bosses around. This discussion here is about that difference. Of course you can also reach goals by just yelling and punishing people, but that would hardly qualify as leadership.
