What makes someone a good leader? Is it caring about the people they're in charge of? Or is it more making sure they can all get out of an impossible situation alive? During those times do numbers count, or is any single loss an unacceptable failure?

And when it comes down to it, how do you know if you're a good leader until something directly happens?

I've always considered my Pops the best leader there ever was, but he was the strongest man in the world on top of caring about all of us. So I guess he had both qualifications covered.

Just curious as to thoughts on it, if you will.

Mm. Perhaps.

Conviction I guess. That's the popular thing in my world. No regrets.

[gunite.livejournal.com]

That, too. Conviction's important.

I suppose that's something our fearless commander has in abundance?

[gunite.livejournal.com]

Maybe. Only the commander would know for sure.

[fierybluebird]

Everyone's got doubts sometimes.

[gunite.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Everyone's got 'em. They just surface at different times.

[fierybluebird]

Sounds about right.

Maybe the only thing that makes a good leader is not having doubts during crisis situations when it would backfire.

It's kinda subjective; but a majority would probably agree to that.

[fierybluebird]

Go figure, eh.

Variety's good, yeah?

[fierybluebird]

Absolutely.
