Leader as a “Visionary”
A leader clearly communicates a vision and provides a direction to the followers to reach the target.
When obstacles appear , the human brain is creative enough to devise creative ways to get round the obstacles reach the target provided the destination is communicated clearly.
The problem happens when the destination is not communicated clearly and confuses the human mind.
This is what separates true visionaries from others.

When finite minded leaders violate their ALPHA position
Amazing Simon Sinek quote of leadership:
“If our leaders are to enjoy the trappings of their position in the hierarchy, then we expect them to offer us protection. The problem is, for many of the overpaid leaders, we know that they took the money and perks and didn’t offer protection to their people. In some cases, they even sacrificed their people to protect or boost their own interests. This is what so viscerally offends us. We only accuse them of greed and excess when we feel they have violated the very definition of what it means to be a leader.” – Simon Sinek
