I have summarized and narrowed down to these 6 basic elements to what for me are the characteristics of what an effective franchiser head must have. 1. A good franchiser leader must have good character and integrity. This is true especially if you like your franchisee to respect and trust you as these two qualities are very much a necessity for the success of any franchise network.
