Sorry Rob, that's not evidence, it's an opinion.

It's an example of a car. Evidence of inspired leadership might focus
(for example) on the particular person, their particular actions
pertinent to the example in question (eg the introduction of an
innovative car), and what people who know and work with that person
report about them - but all through a filter of what is inspiration anyway?
Sorry to be so sharp about this but it's a research forum and reliable
knowledge is our business, not to mention a degree of precision in our
language. Blame Ken Friedman - he taught me all I know.

Chance would be a fine thing. Right now I'd settle for one who had any
idea at all about the lives of real people.
