Charismatic Leadership versus Inspirational Leadership

There is a difference between charismatic leadership and inspirational leadership: while inspirational leaders have charisma and charismatic leaders inspire their followers, the main distinction is that in charismatic leadership the leadership relationship is overly focused on the leader, rather than the group or the mission, while an inspirational leader is focused on the greater good.

Charismatic Leadership and Inspirational Leadership

Charismatic leaders are like great fireworks which burn brightly and intensely for a short moment while their admirers bask and relish in the 'magic'. They are sparks in the dark of the night.
Inspirational leaders kindle the light in people and these do same, so that the inspiration lasts longer for longer impact.
You can inspire but you can't induce charisma.

Inspirational versus Charismatic Leadership

I agree 100%.
One of the single most crucial leadership qualities missing in today's tumultuous world of business and personal living is INSPIRATION. While inspiration is the "spark" that lights the "flame" that becomes the "torch" per Dr. Lance Secretan. The timeliness of such a journey couldn't be better than now.
The search for "Charisma" on the other hand is a narcissistic, self-centered, temporary, wasted journey. Find Inspiration within oneself and within one's organization. If it is challenging within the organization's current toxic environment, take a pause and reflect on when there were Inspirational moments in the past and see how you may be the catalyst to bring such an inspiration for all forward.
This has become a centerpiece of my leadership coaching practice in shaping a prescriptive mindset for forward movement - personally and professionally.
