One of my favourite terms is Passion. It's an often misused word especially in the leadership context. Leadership is most effective when a leader works for his/her cause with passion. Now, is 'Passion' visible all the time? I don't think so. So how does Passion get rewarded if the passionate person does not tie visibility to it as well? A passionate person is satisfied when his or her goal is accomplished and may not even be aware if his passionate work has been visible, got rewards or awards and if they captured the headlines.
No prizes for guessing this one. How many of us know one Muhammed Yunus of Grameen Bank as compared to King Khan? One is passion without visibility and one is with visibility.
