How about honesty as a critical and essential characteristic of good management? This does not mean full disclosure to all employees about corporate plans. It does mean that senior management does not lie to its employees, whether the employees are upper management or the general employee population at large.

Personally I think the one sin that really kills off management confidence is a lack of resources. Not only does it destroy confidence in management but it hamper project implementation. It is in my mind the number one deadly sin.
