13.The Law of Reproduction: It Takes A Leader To Raise Up A Leader.

Primary Point of the Principle

Leaders are products of mentoring by other leaders. To develop and empower

leaders, one must be a leader too. To continue to develop others as leaders, one

needs to become a better leader too. Mentoring of leaders should be one of the

highest priorities of a leader.

A Leader Who Lives Out the Law

leaders.

Pointers for Practice

leaders should:

. See the big picture.
