Respect ~ Earn it!

There are many a times which we can spot a leader from afar. Some unique leaders just have the magical powers to influence and command respect from his followers. Respect is not an entitlement to leaders, it has to be earned with hard work and genuine intention. What separate those leaders from the rest are as follows.

Strong Belief
Influential leaders always have a set of beliefs that they held close to them. They will always have the commitment and dedication to their believes. They do not compromise other things. This consistency that they held demands a certain social expectations or standards on their followers. These beliefs are alRways backed with strong rationale and purpose. Their followers buy in to their ideas and follow as what their leader always does. Weak leaders display to be easy with their values and thoughts and be "pushed around". Followers may not be comfortable in following them. Bad leaders are those who do not walk the talk and have swaying attitude. Followers lose faith in them.

Genuine Interactions
Respectable leaders also show their leadership at all times. A simple litmus test is are you the same when in position and when not in position. If you are, then you are genuine who you are. If you are not, then you should think about what is causing the change. Followers can feel and sense if you are genuine or purely going through the motion of interacting. Never doubt their ability to feel.

These two things are what commonly seen in leaders who earn their respect through their genuine commitments in their beliefs.
