I have picked one that I know for a fact that many people see as THE characteristic – Self-Management.
However, in today's World, people live in a rush, always thinking about the next bill, the next meeting, the next meal, the next paycheck, the subsequent performance evaluation, the following weekend, the following holidays, the next…the next...
With such speed and tons of things on our heads to juggle, we must remember to think about ourselves. How can we regulate emotions and thoughts if we live through the motions?
The first and primary trait of a leader is Self-Awareness.
