16. Thoughtful observers suggest leaders share a number of distinct qualities. They are clarifiers, definers, critics, optimists, teachers, mobilizers, implementers, managers and nurturers. They enjoy learning and thinking and aren’t threatened by the unfamiliar. They may be forceful but are low key enough that people feel free to offer suggestions or question their ideas.
17. They are collegial, with excellent people skills. They actually enjoy complexity and are not overwhelmed by constant change or by considering what that change might mean for what they do. They also understand that the best in any profession is first a teacher. -Cleveland, 2002
