Honesty & Integrity (to earn the respect and cooperation of others)

Management (staff management, time management, organisation)

Relationship building (study personality types to build more effective relationships)

Resilience (work effectively under pressure, stress management, stay healthy)

These qualities are considered important not only for business executives and managers but also for any role that requires working in a team and / or managing other people.
