Leaders have faith in people. They believe in them. They have found that others rise to their high expectations. Leaders use their heart as well as their head. After they have looked at the facts with their head, they let their heart take a look, too.
Leaders keep their eyes on high goals.
They are self-starters. They create plans and set them in motion. They are persons of thought and persons of action - both dreamers and doers. Leaders are faced with many hard decisions, including balancing fairness to an individual with fairness to the group. This sometimes requires 'Weeding out' those in the group who, over a period of time, do not measure up to the group needs of dependability, productivity and safety.
