I can relate to that Br.tsukimaster. Indeed in our leadership we share in mutual responsability for the other. That`s quite an awesome idea! Especially now that I have a three year old daughter, I consider things as simple as crossing the road when the light is red. Many people do, especially when they are in a hurry or there is no car in sight, or even when they are cock sure of themselves. These people probably convince themselves as to what the harm there is in that, or that it is their life afterall. But all it takes is one small child who sees the success of such an action, and already a learning process has taken place. A child could think \"I can do that too!\". As to who is responsible for a possible fatal consequence I will leave upto the reader. Looking at this one single and simple example, it amazes me how limited we are in our sense of living. What have we done or caused without really knowing it.
This is certainly an interesting view of leadership. One historical figure comes very strongly to mind as far as the topic of leadership is concerned, and he is St.Francis of Assisi. He put his trust in the Scriptures (he even fliped the Bible in a random way open to make everyday decisions), he placed responsability into the hands of the Bishop Guido and let him make the rules, he let his brothers make the decisions of running the community. He absolutely did not want to become a leader, he considered himself as the dirt of the earth. Yet his example still moves people today! The type of leadership you mentioned, is certainly one which no-one can escape. there is no born leader, but we all are born leaders.
