As I was going through Paulo Coelho's Blog I came across this topic which I found amusing and decided to share with u guys! :---
____________________________________ EM PORTUGUES AQUI: Em busca do lider perfeito EN ESPANOL AQUI: En busca del lider perfecto ____________________________________
A reader sends me a questionnaire in which he presents the profile of three world leaders who lived in the same period of history, and asks if it is possible to choose the best one using the following data:
Candidate A was associated with witchdoctors and often consulted astrologists. He had two mistresses. His wife was a Lesbian. He smoked a lot. He drank eight to ten martinis a day.
Candidate B never managed to hold down a job because of his arrogance. He slept the whole morning. He used opium at school, and was always considered a bad student. He drank a glass of brandy every morning.
Candidate C was decorated a hero. A vegetarian, he did not smoke. His discipline was exemplary. He occasionally drank a beer. He stayed with the same woman during his moments of glory and defeat.
And what was the answer?
A] Franklin Delano Roosevelt. B] Winston Churchill. C] Adolf Hitler.
So what then is leadership? The encyclopedia defines it as an individual’s capacity to motivate others to seek the same objective. The bookstores are full of texts on this theme, and the leaders are normally portrayed in brilliant colors, with enviable qualities and supreme ideals. The leader is to society as the “master” is to spirituality. This, however, is not absolutely true (in either case).
Our big problem, especially in a world that is growing more and more fundamentalist, is not allowing people in prominent positions to commit human mistakes. We are always in search of the perfect ruler. And we risk to have another madman like Hitler. We are always looking for a pastor to guide and help us find our way.
The truth is that the great revolutions and the progress made by humanity were brought about by people just like us. We only need to have the courage to make a key decision at a crucial moment.

If you think about it, Hitler was the best leader. At leadingyness, he was the best. His ideals were just twisted and wrong. (based on my ideals) He got a lot of people to believe and fight for the same things as himself. And I did pick C. If Hitler was humane and didn't create the holocaust, people would adore him today.

sweatdrop yeah but he did cause the holocaust, and that is the very point. Germans wanted hope, a leader to lift them out of the depression. And he showed that capability and gave them a vision of the perfect world. And tried to make it perfect by eliminating. Every person living in this world has flaw.
