They can use humor, including dark humor, to lighten the mood even when things aren't going well. Even in the face of challenges, good leaders will maintain a positive outlook. Above all, they will set a good example. The most effective leaders must create and exemplify a culture where doing the best work and going above and beyond even in the face of obstacles is the norm
