English summary: The definition of leadership is unclear and shimmering; qualities of leaders are not easy to specify and often diminish in the eyes of their constituents. Willy Brandt, the famous politician engaged in Eastern transformation processes in the early 1960s was seen as a lightweight imitation of Kennedy. Initially, Kurt Biedenkopf was honored as 'wonder boy' but then teased as 'wound boy'. Even faster the popular Ralf Dahrendorf lost importance. What does this mean for political leadership? Is there just no silver bullet for the taking over and the assurance of political power? Does the perceived quality of leadership always depend on the moment in time and the point of view of the observer? What personal characteristics provide ascending careers and duration in high political positions? Do instituional, social and cultural influences confine or amplify rooms of decision-making? Is it possible to identify indicators for success of leadership in parties and politics at all? German text. German description: Der Begriff Fuhrung ist unscharf und schillernd. Ein und derselben Figur werden Fuhrungsqualitaten einmal zugesprochen und dann wieder bestritten. Der visionare Ost- und Friedenspolitiker Willy Brandt galt vielen Betrachtern in den fruhen 1960er Jahren als oberflachliches Kennedy-Imitat. Kurt Biedenkopf wurde zunachst als Wunderknabe emphatisch beklatscht, um bald darauf als wunder Knabe verspottet zu werden. Noch schneller vergluhte der kurzzeitig hell leuchtende Stern Ralf Dahrendorfs - und auch die Urteile uber die Vorsitzenden von PDS und Linkspartei schwanken im Zeitverlauf erratisch. Was aber bedeutet das fur politische Fuhrung' Basieren die Umschlage in der offentlichen Meinung auf einem plotzlichen Verlernen beziehungsweise dem ebenso spontanen Erwerb politischer Fuhrungsfahigkeiten' Ober gibt es bloss keinen Konigsweg fur die Eroberung und Sicherung politischer Macht, ist Fuhrung also stets abhangig vom Zeitpunkt und vom Standort des Betrachters' Eben darum soll es hier gehen: Welche personlichen Eigenschaften begunstigen Aufstieg und Verbleib in Fuhrungsamtern' Inwiefern begrenzen oder erweitern institutionelle, soziale und kulturelle Einflusse Gestaltungsraume' Und lassen sich Erfolgsindikatoren von Fuhrung in Parteien und Politik identifizieren'.
