The fundamentally anti-democratic nature of the leadership principle is challenged by the introduction of concepts such as autogestion, employeeship, common civic [[virtue]], etc, which stress individual responsibility and/or group authority in the work place and elsewhere by [[focus]]ing on the skills and [[attitude]]s that a [[person]] needs in general rather than separating out leadership as the basis of a special class of individuals.

'''Leadership''' is vital to [[progress]]. [[Wisdom]], [[insight]], and [[foresight]] are indispensable to the endurance of nations. [[Civilization]] is never really jeopardized until able leadership begins to vanish. And the [[quantity]] of such wise leadership has never exceeded one per cent of the [[population]].
