TN.

I believe it's called leadership.

As a kid growing up, I watched my next door-but-one's two older than me lads out training hard every day before joining the Army. . IIRC, both joined the Paras and I know one became CO of (2?) Para .. and had a very simple take on life and leadership: "If I can't physically do something then I won't ask [order] my men to do that". Again, IIRC, both of those gentlemen ended up as at least 1*s.

Sod them though, I used to lust after their sister who occasionally babysat for us
