Hitler was inspiring. So that makes him a good leader right? Truth is I'd heard that he was largely lucky and highly incompetent overall.
Quite frankly plenty of people Inspire others to commit atrocities. I don't view that as a good leadership skill. Good leadership skills are the ones who get things done for people who need it done. Even if it's not perfect or 100% adequate.
The ability to inspire others isn't necessarily A negative. But I wouldn't hold that it is a vital or necessary quality of leadership either. More a weakness of people needing someone to lie to them and lead them along more often than not.
