What are the top qualities that make a great leader?

Top Qualities that make a great leader are:1)Honesty:(if you make honest and ethical behavior a key value, your team will follow suit)2)Ability to Delegate(The delegation is identifying the strengths of your team, and capitalizing on them. Find out what each team member enjoys doing most. Chances are if they find that task more enjoyable, they will likely put more thought and effort behind it. This will not only prove to your team that you trust and believe in them, but will also free up your time to focus on the higher level tasks, that should not be delegated. It’s a fine balance, but one that will have a huge impact on the productivity of your business)3)Communication(Being able to clearly and succinctly describe what you want done is extremely important. If you can’t relate your vision to your team, you won’t all be working towards the same goal.)4)Sense of Humor(It’s these short breaks from the task at hand that help keep productivity levels high and morale even higher.)5)Confidence: ( As the leader, by staying calm and confident, you will help keep the team feeling the same. Remember, your team will take cues from you, so if you exude a level of calm damage control, your team will pick up on that feeling. The key objective is to keep everyone working and moving ahead.)6)Commitment:(If you expect your team to work hard and produce quality content, you’re going to need to lead )7)Positive Attitude8)Creativity9)Intuition10)Ability to Inspire
