Consider the argument,
In order to succeed a leader must have confidence in the abilities of her entire team. But having confidence is just believing in your own abilities. So in order to succeed a leader must be, on her own, the entire team.
What might be best said of the flaw in the argument?
It’s a fallacy of hasty explanation. Just because it’s true of some leaders doesn't mean it's true of all of them.
The word ‘confidence’ is ambiguous. In one use it means ‘high degree of belief' and in another it means 'self-assurance.'
The word ‘succeed’ is vague. It can mean ‘get rich’ and it can mean ‘meet your goals.’
Some successful leaders work alone.
