because that is the implementation of the concept of organization and leadership imposed by the ruling system

Humans are a pack animal. We have always been that way. Back in the day we would follow the biggest, strongest, fastest, and smartest. Doing that gave us the best chance for survival.

Even now we are still pack animals. But now we follow who we are told to follow, and sometimes that leader just is not what he should be.

It is something that is written into our DNA, you can not escape it. If you were born to lead, then be the best leader you can be. If you were born to follow, then be the best follower you can.

This does not mean that a follower can not rise up and ask the leader why the hell he did something. But be prepared to get knocked the hell down a notch if the leader was actually in the right.

Read Pavlov its a good start!

To quote a book I own by John C Maxwell "The 21 indispensable qualities of a leader".

People follow because they see these qualities in someone;

1. CHARACTER: Be a Piece of the Rock
2. CHARISMA: The First Impression Can Seal the Deal.
3. COMMITMENT: It Separates Doers from Dreamers.
4. COMMUNICATION: Without It You Travel Alone.
5. COMPETENCE: If You Build It, They Will Come.
6. COURAGE: One Person with Courage Is a Majority.
7. DISCERNMENT: Put an End to Unsolved Mysteries.
8. FOCUS: The Sharper It Is, the Sharper You Are.
9. GENEROSITY: Your Candle Loses Nothing When It Lights Another.
10. INITIATIVE: You Won’t Leave Home Without It.
11. LISTENING: To Connect with Their Hearts, Use Your Ears.
12. PASSION: Take This Life and Love It.
13. POSITIVE ATTITUDE: If You Believe You Can, You Can.
14. PROBLEM SOLVING: You Can’t Let Your Problems Be a Problem.
15. RELATIONSHIPS: If You Get Along, They’ll Go Along.
16. RESPONSIBILITY: If You Won’t Carry the Ball, You Can’t Lead the Team.
17. SECURITY: Competence Never Compensates for Insecurity.
18. SELF-DISCIPLINE: The First Person You Lead Is You.
19. SERVANT HOOD: To Get Ahead, Put Others First.
20. TEACHABILITY: To Keep Leading, Keep Learning.
21. VISION: You Can Seize Only What You Can.

Personally I think this book sums up very well what a leader must possess and live on a daily basis, if she or he does this people will naturally gravitate towards them.

We follow leaders because we are herd animals just like the other herd animals that follow the Alpha male or female.
Led by the strong (in days of Yore of course), we now pick and choose them and appoint them to high office in the faint and forlorn hope that they will lead us well.

I prefer JJDIDTIEBUCKLE. But yours works too.

Man I have not heard that in many years my friend. Judgement Justice Dependability Integrity Decisiveness Tact Initiative Endurance Bearing Unselfishness Courage Knowledge Loyalty Enthusiasm.
