The top two that I see as tied for first are Honesty and Integrity, closely followed by communication skills and having an open mind.

Don't demand other to do what you would not do or have never done . If you haven't done it join them in doing it lead by example .

The best traits in an authentic leader are empathy & competence. I couldn't ask for more than a leader who cares and can get the job done well.

An authentic leader is someone true to themselves and their values and leads with integrity. They possess strong communication skills and are transparent in their actions and decisions. They also have the ability to create a positive and inclusive work environment, where others feel valued and heard.

AUTHENTIC LEADERS - Traits!!!
They are usually charismatic and can get buy in from those they lead. They have mastered multiple leadership styles so they can lead a diverse groups as everyone is led differently. They are fair when it comes to praise and discipline, both should be used diversely. They lead by example, do things correctly and follow policy/procedures. They provide boundaries so employees/team members know where they stand at all time. They are transparent, this allows for trust. They are willing to do anything they ask of others you should never ask someone to do something you feel you wouldn't do or you know is unsafe or outside regulations. They are knowledgeable in their subject matter, preferably the subject matter expert. They are out of the box thinkers that can see the big picture, a great leader sees the issues and recognizes how the issue affects other things and institutes a solution that not just fixes the issues but resolves further issues that can come from the resolution. if you can't see beyond right in front of you, are you truly leading? Be respectful and handle things with dignity. Disseminate work equally and hold them accountable for their responsibilities. Delegate work and provide opportunities for growth.

These are just a few traits that I think make an authentic leader.
