@sameer777 You hit the nail right on the head in the very first paragraph. People need to be inspired, not just follow someone by default because that's what you do.

It's what separates real leaders from those who are just in charge. They people of indisputable character, integrity and possess the clarity of thought to breakdown old paradigms and create new more inspiring ones.

Real leaders think nothing of offering their hand to help those on the rungs below them to reach the height they are at. They inspire transformations in people by empowering them. They create the next generation of leaders to follow on from them.

Those who are in simply in authority rarely take heed of the advice of those around them fearing it will make them look weak. They fail to realise true strength is to be humble, and not become so attached to their ways of thinking that they drift into zealotry.

There is the loss of perspective and objectivity by being too invested in their own dogma to create a long-term plan for the collective. It is all about them, and their hold on power.

They see every challenge to their authority as a threat, and seek to suppress those below them for fear of being supplanted from their position.

The world is sorely lacking in real leaders...
