Great Leadership is something everyone talks about, many speak about, and fewer still, write about. Do you perceive a difference between good leaders and great leaders?

Have you figured out where great leadership starts? I mean, have you made up your own mind? Or do you rely on a bestselling leadership book to pretend you know?
