&emes:Passion

Passion is what makes leadership the most amazing thing to drive everyones life differently.

A leader shares passion for their team, their vision and their goal. Passion provides direction and a way to justify your actions to yourself and to others.

A leader without passion is ultimately a leader without followers. Regardless of the eld or the bredth of the passion, it is something every leader must have.

Passion is the element you need when faced with problems that seem to overwhelming. It is passion that drives you, and passion that reminds you there is a solution.

When one has something important to tell the world, it is criminal to waste ones energies on other occupations - Sated

&emes:Knowled*
The excellence of knowledge is required for a leader to solve complexity in modern society.

Knowledge is not a skill, it is an attribute. It is acquired over time and is essential for any leader. No leader will know about everything and anything, but they will know about something.

Without knowledge, without learning, without research or understanding, a leader is little more than a farce. It is knowledge that underpins society.

Knowledge is that which you can rely on when you lose your way in the face of adversity. It also allows you to have condence in yourself, and those around you.

Imagination is more important than knowledge ... Imagination encircles the world - Einstein

&emes:Inuence
Inuence is everywhere which makes everything unpredictable. Thats what a leader should cautiously control.

This is the job of a leader, to impart their inuence upon their followers. Not everyone is exactly the same, therefore achievements can not be made without inuencing others to follow you.

Inuence is one of the most important - and dangerous - tools a leader has. Inuential leaders must constantly question their motivations.

Inuence is knowing that you have earned peoples trust, and insight, and knowing that people trust you makes everyone a better leader, and person.

You are responsible for the whole world - Havel

&emes:Humility
Humility sets rules for people living on the earth. It doesnt sound like important, but it has impacts on everything. A good leader considers issues related to humility to get better support.

Face it. You dont know everything, nor does the person next to you. You both need to realise that.

Humility is the ability to gain knowledge from others. Humility is the ability to put aside ideological purity in order to obtain the end goal. Humility is putting aside pride in order to understand the people you lead.

Humility is the element that gives you strength. When you have been humbled, and understand those around you, you are in a much better position to help, and lead them.

A pedestal is as much a prison as any small, conned space - Gloria Steinem
