What profession do you admire most and why?
The ones I admire are not those shouting under the glare of spotlights,
but those who can lead tens of millions steadily through storms.
That kind of pressure is hard to imagine.
Every decision is a stone dropped into a lake,
ripples reaching the lives of countless people.
The most important thing is the ability to keep all those millions fed.
It’s not just management—it’s responsibility:
to hold the course in bad weather,
to find solutions before hunger knocks on the door.
Leadership is not about force, nor about dictatorship.
It’s not about hiding the bad and showing only the good,
but about facing problems head-on and finding a way through.
It’s also about respecting every single dollar of taxpayers’ trust,
spending it where it matters most.
I know real-world leaders are not perfect.
Some say they are not open enough to dissenting voices.
Some complain their supporters draw lines too quickly.
Others doubt they have the global vision and wisdom needed for the times.
So, the leader I hope for is this—
one who doesn’t fear criticism,
because it’s the compass that corrects the course;
one who doesn’t turn differences into walls,
but into bridges;
one who can read the storms of the world,
yet still guard the ground beneath our feet.
True leadership is not being pushed forward by the crowd,
but having people choose to walk with you.
And that is the kind of person I admire.
