Leaders hold power, but must use it according to the rules of advance and retreat. Only retreat without advance leads to chaos, while only advance without retreat results in abuse of power. Rooted in the heart, with both advance and retreat, in an orderly manner, to win people over, to obey leadership, and thus achieve the leader's goals—is this not harmonious leadership? Rules are patterns, but also strategies; advance and retreat are art, but also demeanor. This strategy and integrity are demonstrated through the dialectical relationship of inaction and action, control and use, authority and manipulation, integrity and cunning, motivation and discipline. Only with harmonious leadership can one master the strategy of managing and utilizing people, showcase the demeanor of orderly advance and retreat, and thus seize the high ground of power. The high ground of power is the high ground of leadership, the high ground of talent, and the high ground of wealth.
