Intelligence is the most important quality of a leader. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Between all the qualifications, understanding plays a vital role for a leader. I totally agree with

this

notion, since intellectual

leaders

can make useful decisions and communicate better with their juniors.

First

and foremost, intelligence leads to better decisions. Since

leaders

with intelligence have a good mindset and they take every step with strategy, they can decide better in hard situations. One of the most intelligent

leaders

of my country,

for example

, decided to stop selling fuel to foreign countries in 1990 with his well understanding and it led to the state industry developing in the short term.

Furthermore

,

leaders

with intelligence listen and learn from their people. By being friendly with juniors,

leaders

can listen to them, communicate better with them, learn from them and eventually make the whole system flourish. Only an intelligent leader understand

this

manner's value.

For instance

, Gandhi, one of the former

leaders

of India and absolutely the most intelligent one who was the reason for India's enormous improvement declared that he owed his success to his kind manner with his population. Some may argue that the most important feature of a leader

power. They think that people will obey powerful

leaders

and respect them,

however

, I think over authorisation can lead to dictatorship and power is not as important as perception because people respect wise

leaders

more than powerful ones. To sum up, I opine that

leaders

must be intelligent enough to make better choices and have a friendly approach with their juniors.
