<p>In the military there are really two forms of respect. Theres the respect that comes with rank. This respect isn’t the kind that makes you follow someone blindly into battle. However, it is the respect that compels you to address the person as sir or ma’am and follow their orders on an every-day basis. I guess a more accurate definition would be deference to a higher rank, but many in the military will still view this as a seperate form of respect. </p>
<p>The second form of respect seems to be more what your talking about. Its a much deeper more powerful form of respect. Basically thats what leadership is all about.</p>
