By John W. Gardner

It is generally believed that we need enlightened and leaders�at responsible every level and in every phase of our national hfe. Everyone says so. But the nature of leadership in our society is very imperfectly understood, and of many the public statements about it are utter non sense.

This is unfortunate because there are serious issues of leadership facing this society, and we had better un derstand them.

The Dispersion of Power The most fundamental thing to be said about leader ship in the is also the most obvious. We have gone as far as any known society in creating a leadership system that is not based on caste or class, nor even on wealth. There is not yet equal access to leadership (witness the remaining barriers facing women and Negroes) but we have come a long, long way from the family-based or class-based leadership group. Even with its present de fects, ours is a relatively open system. The next important thing to be said is that leadership is dispersed among a great many groups in our society. This is inevitable; our society is not only pluralistic by nature but highly developed. Any such society produces� and in fact is a number of lead produced by� specialized John W.

It is hard leaders in any one of those fields do not recognize the not to believe that such a group exists. Foreigners find it authority of leaders from a neighboring field.
