It does make sense and I do agree with you on this.kridz21 wrote: ↑01 May 2021, 14:42I agree, good leaders should both inspire and guide their followers. However, I believe inspiration is better than guidance. Inspiration opens your eyes to new possibilities, new perspectives, essentially guiding in itself because the act of inspiring someone makes them want to do or create something. Guiding is having a direct influence on a course of action, and is that not what inspiration does? Hope this makes sense.
To be inspired is to be free, to chose on one's own. But if we are lost, guidance is also needed na. And of course it has a direct influence on whatever we do next, but that is because we don't know what else to be doing (could be because we're lacking inspiration).

So I disagree with the notion that you do not have to guide the followers.
