Another great quality that might not be necessary but makes all the difference:
Having fun when shit gets hard.
Maintaining a happy attitude will carry you through hard times, and there will be hard times. Plus it will rub off on the team and your surroundings. We all only have so much (or better yet little) time… so why waste with negative emotions? Keep smiling and carry on.
Thank you so much for this list and your great insights
Great piece Ellen! I'd say No.7 is the biggest one - overindexing on a growth mindset combined with taking full responsibility for following through on their commitments makes a huge difference. And to do that I'd say mastering their own ego, happiness & productivity is necessary first.
