what's " insprational leader " mean

what's the meaning of " inspirational leader"? is it the same as " role model?

should the essay pick up a familiar person that in the real life or someone that is famous but far from the writer?

Tks!

Being able to inspire people around him/her and make them do better work than they used to is one of the important elements a good leader should have.

Without seeing the context of this essay question, it's hard to tell you which one is a better choice. However I would choose a familiar person, if I were you. Usually you will be more impacted by people you know.

Tks! the the essay question is ---

"Who is someone you consider to be an inspirational leader ? Why ?"

I also want to choose a familiar person that have deep impact on me. Is it appropirate to choose my father who really influence me a lot?

Tks!
