I think their definition of leader is faulty. A person or group can follow another for a time but that doesn't mean they acknowledge them as a leader. In the animal world isn't the leader of a group usually the one who has proven themselves to be the best hunter or the most dominate? That type of leader is going to generate an entirely different response than one who others just naturally begin to walk behind in a crowd.

What they are calling leaders, i might call the big guy we follow close behind when moving through a crowd because he makes a handy plow, nothing more. It's small wonder when these leaders were ordered to go against the flow, thus negating the advantages of following them, that the group refused to follow.
