charismatic leadership tactics

Charismatic authority is a concept about leadership that was developed in 1922 by the german sociologist Max Weber. It involves a type of organization or a type of leadership in which authority derives from the charisma of the leader. This stands in contrast to two other types of authority: legal authority and traditional authority. Each of the three types forms part of Max Weber’s tripartite classification of authority.
“Charisma” is an ancient Greek term that initially gained prominence through Saint Paul’s letters to the emerging Christian communities in the first century. In this context, it generally referred to a divinely-originating “gift” that demonstrated the authority of God within the early leaders of the Church. Max Weber took this theological notion and generalized it, viewing it as something that followers attribute, thereby opening it up for use by sociologists who applied it to political, military, celebrity, and non-Christian religious contests. Other terms used are “charismatic domination” and “charismatic leadership”.
