McClelland's theory of power-oriented characteristics includes a belief in one's own ability to influence others, a desire for responsibility and the opportunity to lead, and a willingness to take risks. However, explaining just enough to pacify employees and discourage questions is not a positive trait, as it can lead to mistrust and disengagement among employees.
