Six Qualities of a Leader

Mentors others for the past 25 years in the Greater Seattle and Pacific Rim area, Jesse Tam is asked this question frequently. What is a Leader and can we obtain these skills?  Some people believe that leaders are born, while others can learn to become great leaders.  Here are a few traits of a natural leader from some of my associates and clients.

We are all leaders in one way or another, one needs to find that unique gift in themselves. You may be talented in the arts, music, creative skills, math, sales or natural athletics; but take the steps to follow though on an idea or project once started. Taking the time to process from beginning to final stage and not quitting regardless of the outcome shows leadership.
