Love people, and they will love you back. Love-based charisma is the most powerful one. It inspires people and makes them want to be with you, to follow you, and to be influenced by you.

Charisma Defined

In his 1947 book, Theory of Social and Economic Organization, Max Weber defined charisma as a “gift” that leads a person to be “treated as a leader” based on their perceived “supernatural, superhuman, or at least specifically exceptional powers or qualities” that are “not accessible to the ordinary person.”

Webster's Dictionary defines charisma as “a personal magic of leadership arousing special popular loyalty or enthusiasm for a public figure.”
