"The final requirement of effecitive leadership is to earn trust. Otherwise there won't be any followers - and the only definition of a leader is someone who has followers. To trust a leader, it is not necessary to like him. Nor is it necessary to agree with him. Trust is the conviction that the leader means what he says.
It is a belief in something very old fashioned, call "integrity." A leader's actions and a leader's professed beliefs must be congruent, or at least compatible. Effective leadership and again this is very old wisdom - is not based on beling clever; it is based primarily on being consistent."
