A leader is an attractor in a community. A leader operates by being an integrator of what is so, what is possible and what is unseen or unexpressed in a community. This capacity requires contact, awareness, sensitivity and courage. While the leaders may come from the outside, they must interpret for the culture, language and practices of the community. The nature of continuing the existence of declarations is a function of the integrity, practices, distinctions of the community.
Many communities have very weak structures of persistence for the new.
These communities emerge only dominating leaders or no sustained leadership at all.
