Berchtold changed the title of the office to Reichsführer-SS (Reich Leader-SS).[14] Berchtold was considered more dynamic than his predecessor, but became increasingly frustrated by the authority the SA had over the SS.[15] This led to him transferring leadership of the SS to his deputy, Erhard Heiden, on 1 March 1927.[16] Under Heiden's leadership, a stricter code of discipline was enforced than would have been tolerated in the SA.[15]
