Research "Visionary Leadership Compared to Charismatic Leadership," and write a paper on the topic. Visionary leadership involves leaders with a compelling vision for their business, their project or their organization. Visionary leaders can see beyond the ambiguity and the challenges of today to an empowering picture of tomorrow. Visionary leaders have a way of inspiring their members to rally around a shared vision. Charisma is from a Greek word meaning "divinely inspired gift". Followers are more likely to attribute charisma to leaders who inspire them with emotional appeals to their values and ideals. Charismatic leadership style relies on the charm and persuasiveness of the leader. In this paper, explain the traits and characteristics of both visionary and charismatic leadership. Select one or two leaders that exemplify these leadership styles.
