CARE

C: compassion
A: action
R: responsibility
E: equality

Compassion is a trait that is admirable but I don't believe that it's a sign of a leader. Being compassionate allows for unbiased opinions but in order to be a leader you need to be passionate about your personal beliefs. Responsibility doesn't allow for spontaneous actions which may not be responsible but will get your ideas noticed. Equality is important to maintain in all situations but should be a second nature not a goal to achieve. Action is the quality that I would personally say is most important to being a global citizen. Taking what you believe in and turning it into an initiative takes risk, passion, and spontaneous action. To take action it involves raising awareness and making plans as part of being a leader and a global citizen.
