While having a late evening chat with my colleagues, we came to a conclusion on two types of leadership. Â Do not know how true it is, BUT, it is surely worth noted.
Type 1:  Leaders who work hard and struggle for their self-interests.  They have a long term goal for their own achievements but sadly not for the organisation that they lead.  Leaders of this type are rotten leaders.

The Smell of a Rotten Leader
Type 2: Leaders who really strive for the organisation that they lead. Â They have a long term goal and work at their very best for the benefits of their organisation. Â The organisation, people, workers, employees are above their own interests. Â In what ever they do, it is not about themselves but the organisation. Â Leaders of this type are true leaders.
I would like to re-post a quote, by Mufti Ismail Menk, that I have posted earlier for leaders to ponder.
Give without expecting anything in return. That’s the beauty of your heart. It’s ok if people don’t see that. The Almighty keeps count!
