A leader, a leader is a person who guides a group of people to a better place.
This definition of leader includes three aspects: knowledge, affection and power.
“Knowledge” refers to the fact that a leader knows where we are now and knows a better place to go. That “better place” can be a new product, another service that can be improved. Or it could mean a more pleasant way of living for our family, or even a superior state of mind, or a better world.
“Affection” means that the leader not only sees that we can go to a better place, but he cares enough about us to make sure we get there – he is willing to invest time to help and guide us. to that better place.
“Power” means that the leader knows where we are, cares enough and wants to help us – but he also has the power and ability to lead us when we are not able to get there on our own. Without this power, the knowledge and affection of the leader would be just a kind of empathy and not something that could really help us.
So if we want to be leaders, this is the motivation we should want to lead.
Therefore, being a leader is actually a way of life, a deeper way of living our lives for ourselves and others. Leaders can be those who are in leadership positions, scientists, teachers, doctors, etc., and especially parents!
