I very recently started reading Meditations after having read Aristotle, Plato, but never any of the stoics. I think he's the one leader that come's closest to Plato's philosopher king. While he surely wasn't a perfect leader, its a great insight into how he thought about ruling and how he was trying to be a better person/leader.
