What are the qualities you look for in leaders? What would inspire you to follow someone?

Someone that is a straight forward talker. Who answers yes and no questions with yes and no. Someone who leads by example, with honesty and integrity. There are no such people in politics today.

One who inspires me to do things I wouldn't ordinarily do is a Leader. Too often (think Obama, Clinton) people confuse folks who might be good at managing with those good at Leading.

Agreed!

Additionally someone who is not politically correct or an appeaser. Someone who sticks to their convictions but will consider new information not previously considered. Someone willing to go against the grain and fight for their beliefs. Someone who is a scrapper, that won't throw you under the bus for convenience sake.

Honestly, Im starting to think that hypocrisy is an overused attack that doesnt really mean anything anymore.

I dont expect perfect leaders, cause otherwise ill be disappointed. But i figure if they accept my faults, ill accept theirs and we'll try to do whats best.

The Army defines leadership as influencing people—by providing purpose, direction, and motivation—while operating to accomplish the mission and improving the organization
