He seems to me to be quite genuine, and a great leader. As employees of a company we're lucky to have him. I've never met him, but I get the impression he's the kind of guy who makes you feel like you're the most important person in the room to him, and is interested in what you have to say. The down side of this is that those who are leaders of an organization (a business, some would say) which is paid to have our best interests at heart are as susceptible as any to succumbing to his charm. It's only natural to want to be friendly with such a charismatic and powerful personality, but when you're representing those who have entrusted great responsibility to further their interests you should rise above such temptation.
