This one act or decision caught the imagination of the country with its audacity but probably it was the surprise element which seems to have been the key.
What a leader thinks in such a situation, what he says and more importantly what his action demonstrates, make the ultimate difference in such a situation.
It is more likely that your team or your collaborators or your lenders will support any decision taken unless it is merely an emotional or impulsive one.
