It’s true! When it comes to leadership, the most powerful people in the world have this trait that sets them apart. It's the thing that allows them to be the best at what they do. It’s the thing that allows them to move mountains.
Now, I am not saying that every single person on the planet has that trait. The vast majority of us have some pretty decent self-awareness but we rarely think about this part of ourselves. It's a trait that allows us to think about ourselves in a more balanced way. We think, "I want to be a good leader" and then we go out and try to be the best leader we can be.
This trait can also be found in the leaders of the world but in the opposite direction. This is why so many people will refer to a leader as a “leader of the people.” In the same way that you see a leader as someone who is able to inspire the people around him (and he will usually have the ability to inspire the people around him), it is often the case that the “people” see a leader as someone who is able to inspire them.
Here in the United States, we tend to focus on the leaders of the people.
We pay attention to the leaders in the government, the leaders in the business world, the leaders in the media, and the leaders in the sports world. In fact, we tend to focus a lot on the leaders in the media. I've had the pleasure of being a big fan of the sports news since childhood. I even attended the World Series with my father when I was in high school.
The reason we tend to focus on the leaders in the media is because of something called “power perception.” It’s a term that has been around for centuries, but it’s always been a little misunderstood. According to the theory, the way we are usually perceived is by how much we like someone. It’s the thing we are most likely to like and the things we’re most likely to hate.
Power perception has been a little under the radar when it comes to the world of media. But the concept is something that's been around for quite some time. It's not something that has been widely researched either,
which is why I want to discuss the power perception theory in more detail.
It is a theory that is gaining ground in the past couple of years that proposes that we all have a powerful perception. In other words, we all have a certain amount of power that we think others perceive us as having. The theory is that by virtue of this, we are not the ones who perceive others as powerful. Of course, this leads to a lot of confusion because we often think that others think less of us because we don’t have power.
The theory goes something like this: If an individual is the only person in the society who perceives your power, then you do not perceive your power as powerful and you are not perceived as powerful. The first assumption is that power is a binary concept where you either have power and others don't or you don't have power and others do.
