Society wants everyone to be a leader seeking followers, but the true leader seeks to lead no one. The greatest teacher is silent. Do not try to tell others about the Tao, it is useless. Some people find the Tao and sometimes the Tao finds people. The teacher will appear when the student is ready. Walk your own path, do not look ahead for a leader, do not look over your shoulder for a follower. Be content with your own footsteps.
