Passage 6
An important factor of leadership is attraction. This does not mean attractiveness in the ordinary sense, for that is a born quality {{U}}(1) {{/U}} our control. The leader has, nevertheless, to be a magnet; a central figure towards whom people are {{U}}(2) {{/U}}. Magnetism in that sense depends, first of all, {{U}}(3) {{/U}} being seen. There is a type of authority which can be {{U}}(4) {{/U}}. from behind closed doors, but that is not leadership. {{U}}(5) {{/U}} there is movement and action, the true leaders is in the forefront and may seem, indeed, to be everywhere at once. He has to become a legend; the {{U}}(6) {{/U}} for anecdotes, whether true or {{U}}(7) {{/U}}; an important character. One of the simplest devices is to be absent {{U}}(8) {{/U}} the occasion when the leader might be {{U}}(9) {{/U}} to be there, enough in itself to start a rumor about the vital business {{U}}(10) {{/U}} has detained him. To {{U}}(11) {{/U}} up for this, he can appeal when least expected, giving rise to another story about the interest he can display {{U}}(12) {{/U}} things which other folks might {{U}}(13) {{/U}} as trivial. With this gift for {{U}}(14) {{/U}} curiosity, the leader always combines a reluctance to talk about himself. His interest is {{U}}(15) {{/U}} in other people; he questions them and encourages them to talk and then remembers all {{U}}(16) {{/U}} is relevant. He never leaves a party {{U}}(17) {{/U}} he has mentally field a minimum dossier (档案) on {{U}}(18) {{/U}} present, ensuring that he knows {{U}}(19) {{/U}} to say when he meets them again. He is not artificially extrovert but he would usually rather listen {{U}}(20) {{/U}} talk. Others realize gradually that his importance needs no proof.
