Why are persuasive skills so important for a leader?

What skills and qualities do you look for in your country's leader?

  • I think of "well-educated", "experienced in decision making and turning around difficult situations", "strong values of public service", "strong public speaking", etc. Curious to hear what others look for in a good leader for your country (President/ Prime Minister).

  • Answer:

    How they treat different members of society, what policies they would put in place, and how their policies would affect me personally. I then see how they affect the rest of society to see if they may be bullying a certain minority in society. Everyone should be treated equally. Unfortunantly, lack of gay marriage and putting pot smokers in jail is something I do not like seeing among modern candidates.

I think you could take a good look at someones personal life to see what kind of a leader they are. Are all of their children selfish, needy, and a burden to others, or are they selfless, driven, and help others. In such a powerful position trustworthiness would be a must. Have they followed through on promises made or are they your typical politician?

Loyalty, to America and equal to all citizens. Honor, to stand up for our true freedoms. Respect, respect that the citizens deserve their privacy and freedom of choice. Selfless service, our leader needs to lead by example and put his country first (of course respect the family time). Integrity, no more secrets America funds the govt and we are adults. Fix the import export mess we can do most everything in our own country adding more jobs, businesses need to responsible stop the export of jobs. Start a plan to relieve our country of it's fossil fuel dependency. I want a no poisons released in to any natural environment that could harm any living organism. real education redo whole system. Police all similar agencies, need only for our protection not to harass us or watch us. And yes a true equal socialist like society where w all take care of each other, prices and cost of everything monitored and controlled, yes their will be classes until a few generations pass possibly but once everyone realizes we are here for the same reason and it's easier to help each other and allot of our system is so ridiculous that govt has to subsides it or welfare them, just think if we called a cat a cat and was nice to each other we wouldn't be where we are today.
