what makes someone really likeable and like a 'leader'?

Question

okay what is it EXACTLY that makes someone like the 'leader' or center of their group of friends? like someone that you WANT to hang out with and you WANT to always be talking to them or around them? i'm sure everyone knows of the person in a group of friends that their other friends WANT to walk next to.
what exactly makes someone likeable like that?
can someone please explain?

Answer 1

a leader is basically that person that stands out and above in the whole group. wat makes them stand out has to be based on the group. when its really smart ppl, its the one that is the smartest or won the most science fairs. when its cheerleaders, its the one that is the captain. when its regular people, its the one that is themselves. what makes a person a leader is the one that just is above. i have to be a leader b/c i have to help others. i have to stand out and cant be like any one else. the ppl i hang with r some similar and some completely opposite. wat makes us stick together is the fact that i see how they love being them and that little wish to be something else inside of them. a leader is a person that everyone can look up to for the good they've done and me, personally, i think a good leader is one that stands up for right and wrong and stands up for what they believe in. in that they r true to themselves and ppl look up to them b/c they r real. ppl just want someone that is real or seems real enough to help them be the same. just be true to self

Answer 2

A leader should be someone who would sacrifice everything for the person's needs or happiness. That's why a lot of people like them (leaders). The most important thing is to be yourself, be kind towards other people including the jerks and putting other needs' first before yourself. I gotta say leadership is one of the rare quality that we find in today's society.

Answer 3

Wow I usually agree with someone that answered on a question. I simply must be on a different pole on this one. That person is more than affable and on track with his opinions or viewpoint. He/she knows how to stay under their acceptance level by not being disagreeable with them to win them over, and show he is not too arrogant or to much of a know-it-all. Chip on the shoulder doesn't exist with this person. Smooth talker but seamless blender of ideas and thought to earn the respect of a group. Most people would say he/she has a gift to convince others the idea or views that are expressed are right on target. (maybe it is a gift on that method of talking or leading) I run into a few people like that who are not managers or the so called "x" generation. They are a generation ahead in ideas and attitude that seems to blend those gaps in age groups and motivate the most difficult of people. Hard not to like or respect-Makes them a real winner in my book........

Answer 4

I get you i never really notice that i always was center of attention, yes i have gotten some unwanted on attention along the way, but hey it worked. what makes you the Center is this: 1- your social ness, say your opinion 2- always compliment who ever your with, 3- don't ever let their be silence unless your in a movie or at a meeting.

Answer 5

IDK I sacrifice everything and got nothing. Noone likes me. everything is always bad. So you tell me.
