Voice of Command
I have a dog. When I command her to stay, she only listens to me.
This is a commanding tone that represents authority.
Command equates to authority.
Authority can be given, imposed, or earned.
GIVEN: It remains in place as long as the mandate exists.
IMPOSED: It endures as long as the force of imposition is present.
EARNED: It lasts!
There are also individuals with little or no authority.
Where do you stand?
Remember, earned authority is often associated with wisdom, results, and trust.

1 年I do have a dog male. It obeys because there was training and afterwards a reward with the goal accomplished. I do love jackies. But I do also wash its teeth. It depends on the goal, and context. It is said that a secure voice makes u feel trustworthy amongst others. Or an alpha? Who knows
