This is a pretty narrow view. Half of the things you listed are largely genetic and insurmountable for many. Maybe it becomes important for customers (depending largely on the business and type of customer). But for employees?

- tlb 14y agoYou're caricaturing what I said, which is not good HN manners. The most effective leaders project an image of getting what they want, regardless of obstacles. People prefer to work for, do business with, and invest in people who can maintain that image. If you think leadership should be a human right granted equally to all people regardless of genetics, society has a long way to go. Fortunately, it's possible to live a fulfilling life without being a leader.
