Best Answer

The modern day history of Jehovah's Witnesses started with Charles Taze Russell. .The name for the organization was adopted in 1931.

According to Isaiah 43 v 10, prior to this date, the Jewish people were referred to as "God's (Jehovah) witnesses" - "Ye [are] My witnesses, an affirmation of Jehovah [...]" (Youngs Literal Translation) - and Jehovah's Witnesses today believe the name can be applied to all God's servants past and present including Jesus Christ.

Charles Taze Russell and Joseph Franklin Rutherford.

Jehovah's Witnesses do not have any human leaders. If humans are imperfect, how could they truly guide other humans? Rather, we put our faith in God and Jesus Christ.
