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.

I'm sure it would take work, but if it appears to come naturally to the leader then that would surely ease the mind of others. A leader who is visibly stressed might spark doubt from followers-- it's important to seem collected even when under pressure.

Heh. I suppose so. My Pops and I were always like that you know. Neither of us would show when we were having troubles so the other wouldn't worry.

But if someone's extra stressed, especially a leader, maybe it means they need to talk to someone they can trust to sort things out.
