I'll be sharing with you today on a leader's passion but before i share any further, let's look at the definition of who a leader is and what passion is.
Who is a Leader?
A leader is one who leads a group of people.
What Is Passion?
Passion refers to a strong feeling of love,hatred,anger,enthusiasm, etc
From the definition, we understand what both words stand for. A true leader is one who looks beyond himself to the needs of the people he is leading.
A true leader is not a figure head, he doesn't give orders and goes back to sleep. No!
A true leader is at the forefront of every duty or every work to be done, thereby inspiring those he leads.

A true leader carries the vision,bears the burden of making it work. A true leader is capable of keeping the team focused on a goal and motivated to do their best to achieve it, especially when the stakes are high and the consequences really matter.
According to John C. Maxwell, a leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. Robin Sharma in his book Extraordinary Leadership said "Leadership is not about a title or designation. It's about impact,influence and inspiration. Impact involves getting results, influence is about spreading the passion you have for your work and you have to inspire team mates and customers".
Robin Sharma clearly highlighted the three major qualities of good leadership which are otherwise called The 3 I's of Leadership : Impact , Influence
, Inspire .
This is a leader's passion, his true strong desire to impact his world and produce irrefutable results. That is, he throws himself all into the job because he is unwilling to come back with excuses.
This is a leader's passion to powerfully influence his environment with his vision or goal. Like an epidemic he spreads his passion for the work.
This is a leader's true passion to inspire his team mates and other's around to take up the vision and run with it.
This is a Leaders passion!!!
If this inspires and blesses you,do well to share.
