Sustainable leadership or a single leadership?

I found a valuable view of leadership from dr. younus site. I copied it for bd discusser:-

Thank you for your comment on my previous reply. I partly agree with your wish. Your wish is specially true in case of corporate success. The other part of my disagrement comes with the following points where sustainable growth of a nation is concerned. Let me quickly refer to the fall of communist countries who visivably did a quick growth for a centain period by the presence of leaders with vision and wisdom, but finally collapsed as soon as the leaders left the earth. Others related question may be that why poor india is dragging more sustainable knowledge-based investments than neighboring big countries equipped with better insfrastructure. All are related to the key-word -sustainable leadership, not a single leader.

For the development of Japan or other big countries, novel-lovers quicky give the credit to a single visible leader who ruled during the development period. Unfortunately, the presence of the layer-2 leaders,who nourish vision, wisdom and damocracy into the heart of the leader, always remain under the dark in the pages of the history. Similarly, the independence of bangladesh is quickly credited to Bongobondhu, however, the names of the layer-2 leaders (the 4 leaders) who sacrificed themselves to serve the vision of bongobondhu is merely uttered. My point is that the combined presence of this layer-1 (bongobondhu) and layer-2 leaders (4 leaders) dragged the great victory.

When I wish to see Dr. Yunus as a prime minister, I sadly feel the absence of the layer-2 leaders to nourish and serve his dream. The entire nation/universities/institutions/houses are fully politically polarized. The lack of mass education, lack of mass concern, and lack of practice of dremocratic values is futher amplifiing the polarization and supressing creation of layer-2 leaders. In this circumstances, he can at best make a pseudo-malaysia with the help of the god and the army, but the problems, lying under the carpet, will comes into the light as soon as the leader will be gone. The empowerment of woman, raising mass education and public awareness through the grameen way is the sustainable solution for decades. We need sustainable leadership not a single leader when the issue of politics comes either.

Yes, This is the tragedy in the history of Bangladesh
We have Bongobondhu but we don't get democratic Awami Leag
We have Zia-ur-Rahman but don't democratic BNP
We have Ershad but not democratic JP
We have many parties but none of them practice democracy to create layer-2 leadership within the party.

Only one exception is Jamate Islami, they have democracy within their party from top to bottom and create not only layer-2 leadership but Layer-3 and Layer-4 also ready. After leaving of Golam Azam they got Nizami as more efficient leader. But after Sk. Hasina, Khaleda Zia and Ershad are their any future of AL, BNP and JP? You can deny their ideology but have to learn from their strategy, how they survive after liberation and take part in the govt. within 30 years.

We all should work for the development of sustainable leadership.

New generation leadership should buildup from the liberal part of all present political parties who stablish democratic system and mentality within their pary as well as in the soceity.
