I have found the best way to learn about being a leader is to look at my leaders. Whether they are doing well or doing poorly there is something to learn from them.
If I have a leader I am not motivated by I look at what it is they do, or don't do, that makes me feel that way. In other words I try to learn from their mistakes.
When I encounter a leader who impresses me I look at their actions and try to copy them. I use them as my role model.
