Effective leadership is about earning respect, and it's also about personality and charisma

People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision. Many people who approach the area of vision in leadership have it backwards. They believe that if the cause is good enough, people will automatically buy in and follow. But that's not how leadership works.

Charisma is the result of effective leadership, not the other way around.
