Yes, it is presumptuous of me to have an opinion of something I haven’t watched yet, and to base my view point on one film isn’t especially thought through or cirtical either, but now this is not a scientific paper, it’s a worldly blog post from a very ordinary (I say that with pride) person.

Watching an interview of journalist Jane Björck who has made a film (Swedish only) of Sven-Göran Eriksson’s time in Italy, it became clear that he possesses a great characteristic which I value in a leader. Respect. The genuine respect of others. How he saw people and he respected them, he took time for them. God, how I miss this characteristics in today’s leaders (especially the ones on the main stage having a huge impact on the world).

It’s clear it was important for the people he was connected to, giving me the reassurance that I’m not a crazy person for thinking it’s is an important value.
