Hi Shannon, hope you are all good! And thanks for creating E2, it's really helping me.
I found a TED-talk on facebook on Alpha-Males, a guy who have studied chimpanzee's and how their Alpha male leaders interact with the group. The suprising fact in his studies was the time that the leaders spent on consoling members in the group, disregarding of their rank, and mitigating and stopping fights in the group. There is also some other things he mention, such as the Alpha-members had the same level of stress hormones (cortisol) in the blood, as the low ranking members, due to their obligations as a leader of a group.
It's 15 minutes long, I thought you might be interested:
