its difficult to quote in 3 lines, i would give my try like this -
1. 90% PM time go to Communication, as Nian Rasheed mentioned active listening, being effective and provide feedback, having positive body language and tone; and I will add stakeholder management.
2. Adopt to Change
3. PMI ethics ... Responsibility, Respect, Fairness and Honesty in whatever we do, this goes long way from being a Manager to a Leader
