The Spiritual Leader
By Steven L. Anderson, Ph.D., MBA

To me the ultimate leader is a spiritual leader; one who has a rudder steadfastly connected to the Infinite. That is the person I most deeply want to follow. When I ask most leaders why they are in business they answer, “To make money”. That’s like saying that the reason you are alive is to breathe. Money is certainly necessary, but totally uninspiring, especially to anyone who has to follow you. I believe that if you really want to inspire people you have to have a higher purpose than finances.                                                            (continued)
