Qualities of a leader?
HONESTY
Honesty develops character and builds credibility and trust, which are the
foundation to evoke confidence and respect from those around you, and in
the case of political leaders, teammates and constituents.
COMPASSION
 While many see compassion as a weakness, true compassion is a

characteristic that converts knowledge to wisdom. Good political leaders
use compassion to see the needs of those he or she leads and to determine
the course of action that would be of greatest benefit to all those involved.
INTEGRITY
 Political leaders who possess integrity can be trusted because he or she

never veers from inner values, even when it might benefit them to do so. A
leader must have the trust of followers. This requires the highest standard
of integrity.
 the adherence to moral and ethical principles; the soundness of moral
character.
Confidence
 A good political leader needs to be both confident in himself or herself as

well in their ability to lead. Leaders who possess this quality inspire
others, drawing on a level of trust which sparks the motivation to get
others on board and get the job done.
 Having confidence in a political leader is about having faith or belief that
he or she will act in a right, proper, or effective way.
Flexibility
 Good politicians listen carefully to all sides, to not only hear their
arguments but to especially learn what it will take on behalf of all parties
involved to reach a consensus. This characteristic allows political leaders
to recognize setbacks and criticism, to learn from them and move forward.
 Flexibility for a political leader is about understanding the give-and-take
aspects of politics, and the ability to find the common ground.
Can a society without a leader?
History says “Ofcourse no!”
