		<description><![CDATA[Here is a fantastic little video that I came across, demonstrating how vital it is for would-be leaders to nurture their first followers.  The video’s narration says everything that I could say about this video. I’ll warn you that it’s got the same smooth tracking and motion that Blair Witch Project did — that means, [...]]]></description>
