or task

8.  being results-oriented by directing every action towards
a goal and prioritizing activities toward spending time on
results

10.  having a belief in your ability to "make a difference"

10.1  having an ability to encourage and nurture those that
report to you

10.2  having an ability to delegate in such a way for people
to grow

10.3  having an ability to lead by example
