Julia, I am not sure I agree that Scope, Schedule, Cost, and Quality Management are top leadership skills as those are project management skills, However, Communication, Tema Building and Adapdability (Situational Leadership) are. In addtion to those three, I would say:
4-Conflict Resolution 5- Problem-Solving 6-Decision-Making 7- Organization These skills, when combined, create a strong foundation for effective project leadership. ...

I agree. Ive found that self-leadership, patience, competence and a leadership's awareness of team members' competencies ( and gifts) are key to excellence. What are your thoughts?

I agree, I am not sure if Cost Management and Quality management should be part of top 7. However, I think as a PM it is very important to have skills and knowledge of:
1. Stakeholder Management 2. Risk Analysis 3. Change Management ...

I'm agree with Parul. So, Technical skills like schedule, time, cost, quality management are important, But, Nowadays It's very important soft skills as empathy, teamwork, active listening and among others.
Well, read a book or two about leadership and do not rely on one business school script.
Recommended: - Bradberry, Leadership 2.0 - Maxwell, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership 
nice... another book I'm reading is "Extreme Ownership" provides good and valuable insights into leadership principles.
Dear Julia
The topic you brought to our reflection and debate is very interesting. Thank you for sharing and for the information I believe that: - Adaptability and flexibility to adapt multiple possible management approaches to the project (predictive, adaptive, including agile) - In-depth knowledge of different project management approaches and, therefore, areas of knowledge - Critical thinking - Leadership - Emotional intelligence - Curiosity - Willingness to learn, unlearn and learn again I am increasingly convinced that the answers are given by organizations (Talent Triangle and "Top Four Power Skills Every Project Professional Needs") answer the questions you asked

Hi Julia,
Your question is very interesting and can be challenging precisely because of the variety of criteria that can be issued. This may well be controversial but I mention: * Conflict resolution * Decision making * Situational Leadership * Team Bulding

Top 3 Communication and Situational Leadership , team building are to be at the top. Most of the time is well spent there. When that is is in place usually the rest come in place,

Interesting Julia! There is a difference between LEADERSHIP and MANAGEMENT as well as centralized vs. de-centralized leadership. PMBOK 6 in Chapter 3 lists the secret sauce for SUCCESS as a PM and what makes the top 2% stand out! It is none of the items listed in items 1 - 4.
My "E-V-I-C-T-E-D" acronym lists 7 things to lead up and "evict" mediocrity as a PM leader. 1. ENDURANCE - Go for the long-haul. Not a lightweight 2. VISION - See the future 3. INNOVATION - Steve Jobs got it right. This distinguishes a leader from the pack 4. COMMUNICATION - 90% of one's time as a PM is spent doing this verbally and non verbally 5. TRUST - Without this, leaders will not go far 6. EMPATHY - Keeps the leader centered on the reason they succeed (focus on others) 7. DECISIVENESS - Laser-focused - no waffling. Leaders need a solid backbone If we shift to a hybrid view and introduce some AGILE, none of the first 4 items would be the top 7 because the team would be much more involved. ...
