A lot of good answers have already been given to this very interesting question. I will add a few of mine from observation and from reading success stories of many who have reached the top.
1. The leader has vision. Someone has already mentioned the President and Founder of SFI, Gery Carson. He has the courage to dream, the ability to organise and the strength to execute his powerful vision many years ago that affected the lives of so many people around the world. He saw the Big Picture and shared that vision with us.
2.The leader in SFI has the discipline to work hard and effectively.
When a lesser mortal would shrink from hard work and quit, the SFI leader would follow through with perseverance, grit and determination no matter what. For him, failure is not an option.
3. The leader is a reader who gathers knowledge and wisdom and not afraid to ask and seek advice and counsel from others.
4. The leader is not afraid to lead from the front, has the courage to accept own limitations yet would give his all to help and guide his team to success according to his capabilities.
5. The leader is kind,humble, friendly and is team-centered. He is sensitive to the needs and feelings of others and unselfishly share his knowledge and experience and thus able to build rapport with them.
These are just some of the few characteristics of a good SFI leader that I have observed. Leaders know where to go, what to do, and how to do it to succeed in SFI.
