Summary/Abstract: This article aims to study and present charisma as a factor of the formation of the leader, taking as an example the municipal administration in the Republic of Bulgaria. The author has used data from her own online survey of mayors of municipalities in the Republic of Bulgaria, as well as of district mayors of the cities Sofia, Plovdiv and Varna. The survey started in June 2022; by the time this article was written, responses had been received from 55 mayors. The author’s emphasis will be on one of the survey questionnaires, composed of questions grouped into six blocks. The analysis methods are: descriptive statistics, calculation of mean values, testing of statistical hypotheses, and analysis of open-ended questions. The analysis identified factors of charisma and the respective personal characteristics. The identified personal features and behavior of the surveyed mayors may be used to design a profile to be applied when selecting candidates for public positions.
