 Leadership qualities are about how you interact with people when you are a leader people will look up to you as an example of how to behave. This is important in many situations, for example if you are a parent, in charge of other colleagues at your workplace and even in a relationship.

 Being a leader also means that you need to take responsibility for what is going on around you as you are the one making decisions and giving out the orders.

 People who are not good leaders will tend to make their subordinates do the hard work for them and figure out how to solve the problems they are facing however as the leader you need to get involved and stuck in and be prepared that regardless if something goes right or wrong to take the credit. Everyone makes mistakes, and you should not be scared of making them, instead you should learn from them and improve for the future.
