There is one idea and at the same skill that I consider paramount because mostly everything else is related to it.
It's empathy, the ability to relate to what others (your individual team members) think/feel. This is key in approaching them as unique individuals and adjusting your way of communication accordingly.
Everything relates to this. Giving and asking feed back, how to approach, how to ask and how to deal with any conflict.
