Leadership have never been any simple.
 Day in day out a leader is expected to give
 their best even when the supposed support
by the followers are discouraging.
However, three words can describe a great leader.

What makes a great leader?

courage = the leader face the matter at hand,
speaking their minds about their duties and that
of the others.

+integrity = doing the required even in
absence of the people

+communication = the ability to communicate
 (speaking and listening) what is being done
 and what needs to be done.
