A leader?

A few days ago, I was wondering what a leader was... Not their intent and perceptions, but just how they led. For instance, if someone led people around by force, I might consider them an enslaver or dictator or something, not a leader per se. Or if people were obligated to follow someone, wouldn't that make that someone a master or something?

And then it came to me... A leader is a follower of the followers. :O

No, a leader is a follower of followers. Symbiosis describes the relationship between the leader and the followers.

Ah, okay. I just thought that a follower of followers would make a good leader, since then the leader would know how they want to be led.
