Sun Zi: Art of War.

Well, one of the famous creation of the ancient Chinese civilization is a book named Art of WaR.
The book was written by Sun Zi, a famous military general 2000 years ago.
Eventually the knowledge of the book has been spread widely throughout the world, from leaders of different countries, to successful business man
I have read the book few years ago and i think i should share what i have learned.
In the 1st chapter of the book, Sun Zi has stated that how a general(leader) should be assessed.
He listed 5 of the characteristics that a General should posses.


Wisdom
A general should be able to make wise decisions correctly most of the time.If he had made a wrong one, he should learn from his mistakes.
Trustworthiness
A general should keep his promises so that his team will have trust on him.
Benevolence
Love and care about his team members. Understand their needs and guide them to solve their problems.Show respect to them. Win the heart of them, sincerely.
Courage
Brave enough to take action once a decision is made. Fear no obstacles ahead of you. Sometimes courage is needed to make harsh decisions.
Discipline
A general himself must hace good self-discipline, to set a good example for his team so that they will follow him. With good decipline, plans can be executed more effectively without too much distortion caused by lack of dicipline.
