Along the lines of his editorial--I wrote a paper in the 60's about the premise that the more brilliant the person, the greater the leadership. As I researched this premise, I was surprised to find that Aristotle and many of the ancient Greeks famous for their wisdom and knowledge, thought the most brilliant seldom made the best leaders--rather the more more moderately endowed did, because they were more grounded in the realities of life and worked harder. The brilliant were busy theorizing and trying to put their ideas into practice.
