The following is not original, but reprinted from some material I recently read ... it is a collection of comments from leaders which could be entitled "how to inspire others" ... it is my opinion that these are helpful to everyone as they deal with people, regardless of their profession or position ...1. Follows through on commitments. Keeps promises.
2. Treats people fairly. Maybe not equally, but fairly.
3. Focuses on achieving most important goals without getting distracted.
4. Displays enthusiasm and energy for what we are doing.
5. Helps us understand the “whys” behind big decisions.
6. Exhibits genuine concern for the people they work with.
7. Has high standards and holds us to them.
8. Generates excitement about major initiatives.
9. Provides clarity in all communication.
10. Promotes our creative and strategic thinking.
11. Maintains [his/her] focus; does not multi-task.
12. Dedicated to the growth and development of others. Spends a lot of time on focused coaching.
13. Treats everyone with respect and dignity.
14. A real team orientation. Works to dissolve the separate camps.
15. Takes time to celebrate success and provide encouragement.
16. High energy. Positive thinker.
17. Shares ideas and actively seeks input.
18. Challenges ideas respectfully. Encourages others to speak up.
19. Has done a great job of aligning others around a vision.
20. Anything [he/she] asks us to do, [he/she] has done or is willing to do.
21. Pro-active.

Plus two of my own:
