Video; from Ksitigarbha

I can think of a few.

Standing at the front of a battle, with your men behind you.

Being able to see your men's strengths and assigning them tasks appropriately. Willingness to mentor them into a skilled role that serves the leader's cause.

Rejecting a loyal subject's requests to do something that directly benefits the leader, but costs the life of the subject. Misplaced loyalty to the leader and not their cause, there.

Being able to distinguish the people who want to take advantage of you for your power, your men, your land, or your position... from your true allies. And seeing the need for circumstantial allies too.
