The incandescence of which he is capable. The flame of fire that burns inside of him. The magnetism which draws the heart of other men to him.

To me, a leader is a visionary that energizes others. This definition of leadership has two key dimensions: a) creating the vision of the future, and b) inspiring others to make the vision a reality.
