I agree Verk. and that has much to do with intention of leading.

Leading to me is helping from virtue, not a career for gain.
That is, unless its equitable gain of course.

A good 'king' should be able to live as the people and be safe to sleep under a tree at night w/out protection beyond a blanket for the cold. I would think it would be obvious to people in leadership roles that there is serious irony in needing protection from the people they lead.

A real leader rises from the people and isn't self appointed or sought through 'skillful planning'.

That would be progress in my book.
