About the book >.>.> I believe there was one primary reason for the success we had in helping our herd develop that kind of relationship with us-we worked very hard at mimicking the behavior of a certain “lead” horse in the herd. This horse that we chose to mimic was not the “alpha” or dominant horse in the herd as many folks might suspect.

If I could do that I felt it would make it easier for me to explain why we found it so important to mimic that horse during the work we’d done with our herd.

The title I came up with was “passive leader.” Okay it wasn’t very scientific but it was the best I could do. After all I was running out of time. At any rate I chose that title because the horse in question wasn’t one that would force its way into the leadership role. Instead the horse was comes by members of the herd as the one they wanted to follow. The leadership role was bestowed on the horse in a passive way. In other words it wasn’t necessarily looking to be a leader but didn’t turn the role down once it had been
