A leader is defined as a person who influences others towards achieving a goal. To be an effective leader, one must have followers who trust them. Key attributes of good leadership include having a deep commitment to the goal, the ability to visualize success, and being worthy of others' trust. Effective leadership requires understanding followers' needs and motivating them through two-way communication that depends on the specific situation. Traits, skills, inspiring a vision, and inviting participation are important factors in leadership.
