Other than the skills and traits the abilities that are required for the leadership to be successful includes the interpersonal skills, the communication skills and the ability to take decisions effectively and efficient use of resources.

The individual who is to emerge in a leadership role must have the capacity to learn and analyze the situation, the objects, the problems and the people. The person should be kind and truthful in dealing with others and has the sense of emotional intelligence to help resources achieve their targets. The leaders who have the better emotional intelligence capacity tend to be more successful (Nahavandi, 2009). The leadership should be charismatic and have high integrity as well as proper sense of ethics. The traits that include in the successful leadership personality also include the ability of self- analysis to help assess their own success and failures and avoid repetition of the failures.
