A Humble Leader

What makes a good leader?

I don’t think there is one answer to this question. There are different views on that. But there are some characteristics that a leader should have. The following sums it up nicely:

“We want honest leaders, who are decisive, creative, optimistic and even courageous …. one of the most critical traits of a leader: humility. A humble leader listens to others. He or she values input from employees and is ready to hear the truth, even if it’s bad news. Humility is marked by an ability to admit mistakes.”

ReferenceThe above quote is taken from a very good blog post about leadership, Humble Leaders – An Oxymoron?
