The 5 essential qualities of leadership Les 5 qualités indispensables au leadership

What makes a good leader? How can we embody this attitude on a daily basis? Everyone has the opportunity to influence others and add value. 

Below are the 5 qualities that this french journalist has identified as essential to be a good leader and for which I do agree:

  1. Humility, Otherness and Authenticity
  2. Caring and Demanding
  3. Openness and Learning
  4. Heart, Courage, Listening and Belief
  5. Inspiration, Trust and Guidance

And you, how do you recognize a good leader?

Lorsque l’on interroge sur la notion de leadership, la première réponse qui vient quasiment à l’unanimité est que le leader est un leader parce qu’il inspire et est suivi. Mais je m’interroge, à certains postes, est-ce réellement du fait de leur leadership que les dirigeants sont suivis ? Le critère d’être suivi est-il donc suffisant ?  Et lorsque l’on parle de leader on pense systématiquement à des dirigeants ou des personnages emblématiques mais, le leadership se limite-t-il à ces personnes-là ?
