From Managing with Aloha:
Alaka‘i is the Hawaiian value of leadership, and it is a quality for both managers and leaders, for it includes coaching, guiding and mentoring others. Those who are Alaka‘i lead with caring for others, courage and initiative, and with their good example. They understand that they shall be the guide for others only when they have gained their trust and respect.
Pronunciation Guide: Alaka‘i (Ala-kah-ee)
