This is an era of knowledge worker that is “Leader”. But a person who is responsible for things or having a title cannot be called a leader because a “True Leader” is pioneer in setting the directions for talented employees by identifying their hidden talents and at the same time motivating them to put their talents to work on meeting their goals. Leadership comes from your ability to arouse reliability on other people. If people have faith on you they will follow you or if they don’t trust you eventually things will fall apart.
