Summary/Abstract: Today, the term charisma refers to magnetism, intensity, vivacity. The charismatic leader is a person who, by the force of personal style and abilities, is capable of having a special effect over the subordinates. He/She succeeds in imposing himself/herself through exuberance, self-confidence and through inducing order and ethics. The charismatic leader generates trust and integrates the organisation goals with the subordinate individual ones, in outlining his/her vision for the future. The charismatic leader represents the approximation of the ideal leader defined by “Koestenbaum Diamond”. He will be endowed, to an extent specific to the field he leads, with all the four qualities: vision, realism, ethics and courage. Although certain abilities may be inherited, they have to be developed and polished in an environment favourable to knowledge, being guided by ethical principles, through the power of personal example.
