A leader attracts followers who share similar values, attitudes, behaviors, and motives or lack thereof, says Maxwell.
So does a non-leader attract people like him or her.
If you look around you, those who have stuck with you for a long time are people who are very much like you.
If you are trustworthy, such people are attracted to you. If you are dishonest, that's the kind of
people you attract. You attract serious or unserious people according to what you are.--John C. Maxwell, Leadership Educator.
