In brief
You see where a thing should go, and you say so before anyone else does.
Inventive, driven and direct. You spot the flaw in the plan while the room is still nodding, and you name it. You set a high bar and hold yourself to it first, which is why the bar holds. People follow you because you are specific, and because you are rarely vague about what happens next.
