One good quality of a good leader is for people to trust him/her. If the people that the leader rules does not trust him/her then the leader can not preform at their best for the citizens. Another good quality would be for the leader to love their job and what they do for the community. A good leader should also should be confident about their rule for the community. They should believe that they can do something good for the community and that they can be a good leader that the people want.
