Summary/Abstract: Leaders play a particular role in any field of activity and that is why transformation process should take it in, too. A leader’s charisma means more than an image because it generates the power that musters the followers’ desire for achieving the leader’s vision. Charisma has a dual nature because it is usually associated with power which sometimes corrupts and destroys the leaders. A leader with charisma but without integrity becomes a negative character. A successful leader is that one who “makes investments in the future”.
