I thought I'd start off the discussion / comments by responding to my own questions!
Question 1.
Vulnerable - shows that even though as a leader, you can approach them and learn together, all while making some mistakes a long the way to grow from
Confident - Being able to guide the way for the team, giving you direction you can trust, and also admitting when they don't know something really gives me respect to grow and work with them
Great communication - I feel that when a team knows the direction, the standards, the process, and the goals, they can better work together when trying to accomplish them! Also, for those tough conversations or career sessions a good communicator makes sure you feel heard!
Question 2.
Arrogance - I feel arrogance in leadership doesn't work well, because it can cloud judgement, alienate, people, and bring unhealthy competitiveness into the team. Confident is good. Arrogance not so much.
Unorganized - It's tough to feel like you can exceed expectations if there are no expectations set to exceed. It can be challenging to accomplish goals if they aren't defined. I feel that leaders help communicate goals, standards, etc. into the team so they can utilize them efficiently. Albeit, every leader can do this in different ways - documentation, communicating in meetings or MRs, but it is definitely an important part of a good team!
