Greetings @novacadian ,
How very kind of you to drop by.
It does happen that way sometimes....does it not.
Yes...those with the titles can be lacking, to be sure....thus the need for the principle ...as one may find one's self in a position of influence yet have no title....because they do their best in whatever position they find themselves.
The point is they do not need a title, rank, status to cause them to put forward their finest effort and as a result are an influence.
Kind Regards,
Bleujay
