It is common for people to struggle with a definition of ‘charisma’ in relation to communication and the social sciences. Ultimately charisma is the result of excellent communication and interpersonal skills, as these skills can be learned and developed - so developing your charisma is possible. Becoming charismatic involves paying careful attention to how you interact with other people; the traits that make up charisma are positive and appealing to others. The charismatic person uses their skills to get people on their side, perhaps from a professional, ideological or social point of view. For these reasons charisma is often linked to leadership skills - being charismatic can be an important trait of a successful leader. When asked to think about a charismatic person most people think about a public figure, like a politician, celebrity or successful leader. These people are charismatic and successful, due often to their charisma, but there are also many ‘ordinary’ people who possess a charismatic personality. The popular child at school, the staff in the restaurant who make the most tips, the popular person in the office who is friends with everybody. - Being Interesting and Interested: -Demonstrating Intelligence -Being Assertive -Maintaining Attention to Detail Charisma is all about attention to detail and the detail of how interpersonal interaction takes place.

In a nut shell being a brain on a stick is not enough to manage, managing is about getting things done. 

The missing jigsaw here is the interpersonal skills, or EQ (Emotional Quotient) , this is usually dressed up as teamwork, Adaptability, Effectiveness, Charisma, ability to motivate and similar code words for EQ.
