Leadership And Motivation, Is There A Legitimate Connection?

I think a lot of people misunderstand this. Sometimes people wanting to be seen as leaders spend a lot of time and effort trying to motivate their people. This is a mistake. Only self imposed motivation works over the long haul. Motivate yourself to do the hard job of trying to be a role model of leadership and your followers will motivate themselves to follow.
