3) Courage: courage is an inspiration from mentality and a force or
physical action which encourage others even one has to face the fare bravely. People

might misunderstand about courage sometime, because people think that if someone
can across the highway road which has a lot cars are driving also called courage.

Actually, in this case, that is not called courage, it is called stupid or crazy. Courage is

linking with knowledge or wisdom or appraise the circumstance what is the
consequences of action.

Courage deals with principle, not perception. If one does not have the ability
88
to see when to stand up and the conviction to do it, he will never be an effective leader.
Certainly, when leader does not dear to encourage his team in front of them, and in

work, he is not a leader. Naturally, the ordinary people afraid to be do things but if one
can do something, to face the fear, he is on the journey of leadership. Leader is the one

who represent the both faith and fact, who express the courage bravely to inspire his
team to do the right. When the ordinary person becomes a leader and receive some

position as a gift, because he encourages and lift people around him bravely. Maxwell

assumed that “A leadership position doesn’t give a person courage, but courage can
give him a leadership position.” When the courage is expressed by leader, it inspires

the co-worker effectively.
4) Competence: competence means as a leader a skill or ability to perform

and decides something proficiently. Generally, people respect, admire, and want to
follow the person who is ability to do things competently both in practical and

theoretical, no matter whoever they are such as a cleaner, construction worker, driver,

manager, successful business leaders, and so on. But competent people never stop
learning, and they always keep improving, learning, and growing. Thus, leaders always

learn something new to persuade people and doing the right thing for his co-workers.
