Hi..
It depends upon what sort of team he is leading. If he is leading a technical team, he should be well versed with that aspect. Otherwise, how can he validate or rectify an assignment / problem. In that context, yes, he is less than an absolute team leader.

Would like to share the following nuggets which I came across a few years ago on LEADERSHIP...

===

The Art of Leadership



The leader is a servant.

The leader sees through the eyes of his followers.

The leader says, "Let's go!" and leads the way rather than "Get going!"

The leader assumes his followers are working with him, not for him.

The leader builds others and their character.

The leader has faith in people. He believes in them, and thus draws out the best in them.

The leaders uses his heart as well as his head.

The leader plans and sets things in motion.

He is a man of action as well as a man of thought.

The leader has a sense of humor. He has a humble spirit and can laugh at himself.

The leader can be led. He is not interested in having his own way, but in finding the best way.

He has an open mind.

The leader keeps his eyes on high goals. He strives to make the efforts of his followers himself contribute to the enrichment of personality, the achievement of abundant living for all, and the improvement of all.

The leader is nonjudgemental and accepts others for what or who they are.

Here is an impressive story which talks about the discipline of a Leader :

HEAR THE UNHEARD

Back in the third century A.D., the King Tsao sent his son, Prince Tai to the temple to study under the great master pan Ku. Because prince Tai was to succeed his father as king, Pan Ku was to teach the boy the basics of being a good ruler. When the prince arrived at the temple, the master sent him alone to the Forest. After one year the prince was to return to the temple, to describe the sound of the forest.

When Prince Tai returned, the master asked the boy to describe all that he could hear. The Prince replied, "Master, I could hear the cuckoos sing, the leave rustle, the humming birds hum, the crickets chirp, the grass blow, the bees buss, and the wind whisper and holler." When the prince had finished the master told him to go back to the forest to listen to what more he could hear. The prince was puzzled by the master's request. Had he not discerned every sound already?

For days and nights on, the young prince sat alone in the forest listening. But he heard no sounds other than those he had already heard. Then one morning as the prince sat silently beneath the trees he started to discern faint sounds unlike those he had ever heard before. The more acutely he listened the clearer the sounds became. The feeling of enlightenment enveloped the boy. These must be the sounds the master wished me to discern. He reflected.

When Prince Tai returned to the temple the master asked him what more he had heard. "Master", responded the prince reverently "when I listened most closely I could hear the unheard -

the sound of flowers opening

the sound of the petal falling on the grass

the sound of the sun warming the ear and

the sound of the grass drinking the morning dew. "

The master nodded approvingly and remarked that Pan Ku has attained the necessary discipline to be a good ruler. For, only when a ruler has learned to listen closely to the people hearts, hearing their feelings uncommunicated, pains unexpressed and complaints not spoken of, can he hope to inspire confidence in his people, understand when something is wrong and meet the true needs of his citizens. The demise of states comes when leaders listen only to superficial works and do not penetrate deeply in the souls of the people to hear their true opinions feelings and desires.

Hi Devjit!
In my opinion, A truly successful leader is the one who can lead a team to achieve its goals and also keeping in mind the motivational/happiness quotient of the team members. The person may or may not have all the requisite skills to execute the steps in achieving a goal(That is why he needs different team members). However, he/she must have fair level of intelligence and common sense to be able to understand what is being done and what will be done to achieve the goal(s).
At this point of time, even if all the members in the team know what is supposed to be done the leader still has to play the role of the organizer and coordinator.
Not being the best, does not in any way undermine the position of the Leader.

" To be a good leader you need to have a vision of where you are going and understand how to unite people around you in seeing that vision. I think charisma is a very mimportant part of leadership. I have never seen a really great leader who doesnt have some kind of charisma. Great leaders know how to take risks and are comfortable taking risks. Good Leaders kow when to cut their losses. Good Leaers pass all the glory down so that the team feels great about winning and when things go wrong they claim responsibility. Really great leaders are willing to give the power to get things done to other people. They are not hoarders of power. ................Lesley Kim on Leadership
