the light. His discovery was so gargantuan, that
he knew that he had to present it to the Council
of Scholars. Once he told his story to the
Scholars, Prometheus started realizing his fatal
mistake: The World Council rejected his gift of
light and now he had to face the consequences. The
Councils rejection consisted of a few steps.

Theories On Qualities Of Leaders And Followers
1,332 words
There appears to be a particular trend in research
on leadership. Most of it subsumes vision within
charisma. Some scholars even suggest that it is
the vision that leads to the attribution of
charisma to the leaders in the first place.

distinct concepts and as such a leader may be
charismatic but not visionary, or visionary but
not charismatic, both charismatic and visionary,
or neither. To us, charisma is an emotion-based
construct or a heart t...
