What Makes a Woman a Leader?

For us, a leader is someone who embodies the qualities of elegance, style, high standards of personal behavior, skill, and grace. She is someone who inspires and motivates others, who takes risks and challenges the status quo, and who is committed to making a positive impact in her community.
