Leo is the most brilliant sign of the Zodiac. He prefers to play first violin in any undertaking. Whatever post he holds, the attention of those around will be fixed on his figure. He feels confident in front of an audience. That is evidently why so many representatives of this sign have found their place in the arts and entertainment. Leo's talents, including those of an organiser, show themselves very vividly and directly. Leo is confident in himself and spares neither effort nor time to perfect his gifts. He believes that in his life everything must be of the highest order. Once Leo has decided to achieve something, personal charm and persistence will let him overcome every barrier. Representatives of this sign have very strong personal energy and innate performing ability, thanks to which they draw people to them and lead them along. A Leo holding a managerial post will manage things so that practically everyone who works with him takes pride in their work. From subordinates Leo will demand the strict execution of his instructions. Naturally, he tolerates no excuses or discussion of his decisions. While demanding discipline at work, Leos often set an example of enormous capacity for work themselves. They are identified with the business they are engaged in and do not like changing jobs. Intuitively Leos have an excellent sense of who is suited to what work, so they have no trouble selecting staff. Leos love outward splendour and appear extravagant, yet behind this lies the ability to keep careful watch over their income and to economise wherever possible. For a Leo in a subordinate position the highest reward will be praise from management or from an authoritative figure. They absolutely cannot bear criticism, and any mention of their shortcomings will provoke an outburst of indignation. The spur to advancement may be the wish to see the admiring or envious glances of colleagues. He absolutely must stand out from the crowd. Only then does he feel himself a victor.
