Some of the most charismatic and inspiring role models in the world
come from humble beginnings. We look up to them because they show us that we
can do better, and even against adversity, we can accomplish what we set our
minds to. When it comes to the most notable among them, we tend to idolize them
for all they have accomplished, and we attempt to emulate them in any way
possible. Here are 10 of the most accomplished and noteworthy Leaders in the
world, living or dead, that have revolutionized the way we see the world.
1.
Nelson Mandela
Perhaps the one person who will inevitably take the top spot on
anyone’s list of inspirational people, the late father of South Africa,
affectionately known as ‘Tata Madiba’, is known
across the globe as one of the most steadfast figures who, right up to the time
of his passing, embodied the ideals of reconciliation, peace and love. The
first democratically elected President of South Africa and Nobel Peace Prize
winner, Nelson Mandela, has helped millions of people keep their dreams alive
going forward into the 21st century.
2.
Jeff Bezos
While not many people unfamiliar with the tech and online retail
industries will know his name, Bezos is undoubtedly one of the most innovative
and successful entrepreneurs and businessmen in the world. In 2013 he bought
The Washington Post, one of the world’s leading newspapers, for $250 million, and
his company Amazon (best known as being the leading Online retail marketplace
in the world) is innovating in more ways than one, with new tests underway that
would allow the use of unmanned drones to deliver packages within as little as
30 minutes.

Barrack Obama

the 44th President of the United States of America (and as a result, taking his
place in history as the leader of the free `became a Harvard educated lawyer,
and has won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to end the War in Iraq after
his election as President.
4.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin
The two men behind what is now one of the most widely used and daily
recognized companies in the world (we’ve literally called the act of searching
for information online ‘Googling’), and have
managed to continue to innovate and maintain their place atop the ever changing
tech landscape, despite being a relatively old company. The company that
brought us the most trusted search engine in the world, as well as one of the
most widely used mobile operating systems is even expanding its product range
into high speed Internet access and its crazy sounding ‘Project Loon’,
which would launch Internet connected balloons into areas with low connectivity
to bring Internet access to those without advanced infrastructure.
