The following are four character traits that people worth trusting must have in my opinion. Firstly, they must be authentic in the sense that they must be having real character anytime they are close to others. They should ensure that they are not struggling to remain over others at any given time, thus they should remain humble and likeable. Secondly they must have integrity. They must be in apposition to stand for what is right at any given time in life even in times when none is watching them. Thirdly they must be resourceful. Trusted people are normally relied upon to make a number of decisions meant for growth. Therefore, they should be in a position to understand that there is always room for improvement and should be ready to inspire and support those trusting them. Lastly, they must be kind particularly when looking for other individuals. They should always be there fore them and not only times when everything is okay.

The concept of transparent leadership does not exist any more in the contemporary world. Therefore, leaders are not always transparent as they claim to be. In any organization, if employees are not aware of any truth about leadership transparency, it is the matter time before they come to realize the truth. This is regardless of the extent to which leaders might try to run away or hide from reality.

The concept of first leading yourself helps enable others because of the following reasons. The concept helps one build and strengthen personal leadership skills which are necessary in administering different issues. After self-development and advancement has been completed, then he/she extends toe skills to help others (Jensen, 2017).
