There   are human temperaments that seem to be well suited to leadership.    There are positions in organizations which require leadership.  But   there is also a phenomenon where a person looks behind them and  realizes  that they are being followed.  Not by a spy or a private eye,  but by  people who believe they have found someone who knows the way.
