Which Zodiac Signs Make Great Leaders? You Can Count On These 3

The 12 zodiac signs each have their strengths and weaknesses. Some of them are excellent leaders, for instance, while others are more suited to be lead.

Of course, we're not guaranteeing that the following signs will definitely become leaders in their lives—or that the other signs can't—but when thinking about the quintessential energy of the signs, these three are the ones to watch.

Aries might as well have been born to lead. There's no other sign that takes pushing forward as seriously as these fiery folks. Not only are they the first sign of the astrological year (hello, self-starters!), but as the only cardinal fire sign, they have the energy and passion to follow their impulses.

And follow them they will, with these folks knowing what it takes to get people inspired, revved up, and ready for action. They do need to watch out for being too impulsive, but as long as they have a good team to work with, they can execute their ideas quickly and efficiently.

Up next we have Virgo, and while these organized folks may get a reputation for being particular and nit-picky, Virgo is also the sign of selfless devotion. And isn't that what we all want from our leaders?

For Virgo, their attention to detail and preoccupation with perfection isn't simply to annoy everyone around them, it's to bring out the fullest potential available. Virgo has a keen sense for the way things can be improved, and if they find themselves in a position of authority, they'll do whatever it takes to make things better for everyone.

Last but not least, we have diplomatic and peace-loving Libra. These folks make the kinds of leaders we all wish we had: they're caring, justice-oriented, and take everyone's perspectives into account when making decisions.

They would especially excel in leadership positions where they can act as meditators since Libras are excellent at finding compromises and playing the role of peacekeeper in times of opposition. Similarly, they can help unite different groups of people on a single issue to bring forth real change.
