Why being a great leader is far more than just gaining followers.
“A true leader does not search for followers.”
These words penned by the late Dr. Myles Munroe, a globally recognized Evangelical Christian who tragically died last year in a plane crash, initially struck me as odd.
Of course the best leaders look for followers, I thought. How else do you expand your reach? How else do you measure success? How else do you become great? Just take a look at Oprah Winfrey—over 26 million followers on Twitter. Or how about Will Smith—over 75 million fans on Facebook.
