The new Oxford Dictionary of English has a new word “automagically” (automatically and in a way that seems ingenious, inexplicable or magical). I have coined the word automagical leader for such business or political leaders who either by their own beliefs are automagical or those who become so and provide the magical direction to an organisation or a state. In brief, following are some of the traits of an automagical leader;

1. Ability and “soft patience” to listen
2. Create the “destiny” of an organization or of the country, as the case may be
3. Take independent decision on individual perception, but maintain equilibrium.
4. Be able to understand what is realistic magic verses impractical magic (magic here means magical touch of leadership)

According to Jack Welch, “The world of the 1990s and beyond will not belong to ‘managers’ or those who can make the numbers dance. The world will belong to passionate, driven leaders – people who not only have enormous amounts of energy but who can energize those whom they lead”

Ralph Waldo Emerson had said, ”If you would lift me up you must be on higher ground.”. It is true about leaders who are automagical and who bring a leadership magic in any organization.
