I read a sci-fi story years ago: the premise was, leadership is selected by lottery like jury duty. If you're a qualified citizen, you must stand. Anyone evincing a desire for the job gets free counselling and is banned from holding office.
On another note, I once offered myself up for random jury duty, thinking I might learn something about the world. I was rather astonished at the mean tone with which I was rejected.
