CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD LEADERSHIP

by Sr. Priscilla, SOL

In leadership we encounter different characteristics. Below are some of them.
Listening and availability
Leaders should be present to their sisters/people not only physically but with their whole being. They have motivation to listen actively to their people; they also pay attention to what remains unspoken.

Empathy
A leader should understand and share the feelings with others. Community members are entitled to respect and appreciate for their personal development. Actually a leader should not make herself the measure of judging others but should take them as they are.

Awareness
Leaders need general awareness more especially self awareness so as to understand their people.

Foresight
This characteristic enables a leader to learn about the past and achieve a better understanding about the current reality. 
In conclusion religious leaders should contribute to an even widening web of compassionate relationship towards a space circle of love and compassionate.
