Top-10 Characteristics of Lousy Leaders

A pastor friend sent me this list, written by Michael Hyatt. The following summarizes his points:

They don't have enough confidence to lead at their level.
They're arrogant, assuming they always know what's best. It takes confidence to lead. It also takes humility.
They're disorganized.
Their words and actions erode trust, even with their supporters.
They over-promise and under-deliver. This one affects more than just politicians.
They don't articulate a clear vision.
They don't enroll others in their initiatives.
They're not transparent. Openness encourages honesty.
They're blind to what's happening in their own organizations.
They don't hold people accountable—especially themselves.
