Traits of good leader
Honest — Display sincerity, integrity, and candor in all your actions.
Deceptive behavior will not inspire trust.
Competent — Base your actions on reason and moral principles. Do not
make decisions based on childlike emotional desires or feelings.
Forward-looking — Set goals and have a vision of the future. The
vision must be owned throughout the organization. Effective leaders
envision what they want and how to get it. They habitually pick
priorities stemming from their basic values.

endurance in mental, physical, and spiritual stamina, you will inspire
others to reach for new heights. Take charge when necessary.

Example of Leader:
Mohandas K. Gandhi, known to most of the world as Mahatma Gandhi,
changed the world with his fight for peace, fairness, and equality. He
taught the world that violence is not the only way to create change.
Through his own example he showed the world that non-violence is the
best way to create change and that anyone, no matter who they are, can
create change through strength of character and perseverance.

How do you think a good leader manages crisis under stressful situations?
I think that the leader must not focus on how stressed up he or she
is. But to use that time, not to complain about how stressed he is,
but to think of a way to motivate the team so that they can get the
work done. This is an example of what a good leader would do.
