#prisonthinking
There is something to be said about the concept of "fake it 'till you make it".
You can take someone who is rather mild mannered, not a very intimidating person, and show them the stance, and body language they need to have an air of confidence. Even when they are shitting their pants. Throw in a little authority in the voice, and polish up some vocabulary, and you can transform them into a person who takes control and runs their unit. Even though they are scared the whole time.
Eventually, after "faking it" long enough, they realize that they have "made it" into who they are.
Of course, this isn't one size fits all, and actual mileage may vary.
