Empathy

Empathetic leadership focuses on identifying with others and understanding their perspective. Leaders who show empathy are successful because they can better understand how the employees feel about their work environment. This enables the leaders to bring positive changes to the workforce.

Strategic thinking

Leaders need strategic and critical thinking skills, as they are tasked with challenging decision-making. A strong leader makes well-researched and objectively scrutinized decisions that can lead an organization towards achieving its goals.

Creativity

A creative leader can brainstorm new ideas and inspire others towards creativity and innovation. For example, a successful leader will always recognize and reward employees for their creative inputs.

Positivity

A great leader brings positivity into the work environment, which in turn uplifts the employees and encourages them to perform better. Positivity can be cultivated by showing care, respect, diplomacy, and empathy towards the team.

Time management

This is an essential skill for leaders, as they need to delegate tasks, prioritize commitments, set attainable goals and multitask. Successful leaders practice time management skills by setting SMART goals for themselves and their team members.
