What leadership trait or act do you find the most influential? What makes you want to continue to soldier ? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-leadership-trait-or-act-do-you-find-the-most-influential-what-makes-you-want-to-continue-to-soldier <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I know when I was a junior soldier all I ever wanted was for my supervisor to tell me a job well done. I enjoyed being recognized for my work. What I did not like is when I completed a task my supervisor, would say ok now get this done and this done and this done.  Bottom line, the act that I found most influential to me was being recognized for the hard work that I had done. A small pat on the back really does go a long way. Wed, 09 Apr 2014 09:34:55 -0400 What leadership trait or act do you find the most influential?

As soon as it is lost, even in the little things, I then have to question it in the big things.  COL Vincent Stoneking Wed, 09 Apr 2014 09:47:09 -0400 2014-04-09T09:47:09-04:00 Response by LTC Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 9 at 2014 5:55 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-leadership-trait-or-act-do-you-find-the-most-influential-what-makes-you-want-to-continue-to-soldier?n=97820&urlhash=97820 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Empathy, when a subordinate can identify that the Leader doesn't care. The subordinate will most likely discredit the guidance that the Leader is providing. LTC Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 09 Apr 2014 17:55:57 -0400 2014-04-09T17:55:57-04:00 2014-04-09T09:34:55-04:00
