2.2.2 Reaction of king, the leader, about criticism

But, true leader is men who listen to the suggestions of his subordinate and accept criticism. It could help them to make right decision. In Act 1 Scene 1, Kent who is dutiful subject advised him to cancel the decision that transfer his wealth and power to two older daughters except Codelia.. But he didn’t take it.

His personality was too emotional and dependent. So, although he was born novel, he became a tragic person, and he made it himself. It is also true that he suffered a series of misfortunes. But many people are also getting into trouble in many times, and the majority of people get it over themselves.
