charisma
Significado: A compelling charm or attractiveness that inspires devotion and enthusiasm in others, often associated with leadership and public presence.
Charisma originally denoted a divinely bestowed gift or grace before acquiring its modern secular sense. In contemporary usage it describes an almost magnetic personal quality that draws people in, and it frequently collocates with 'personal,' 'natural,' and 'undeniable.' It is applied to politicians, performers, and leaders, and can carry a faintly cautionary undertone when used to describe demagoguery.
