Yes, I believe you said it—“respect”.  Whenever working or dealing with others we must have respect—especially when dealing with cultures that may differ from ours.  The goal is to make progress whether that means an increase of knowledge, money, changes (social, financial, etc.)—success is usually dependent of having a mutual respect for those of whom we interact with for the success of such goal oriented activities.  I believe that many failures to reach goals were due to the lack of respect.

Another ‘value’ that I feel is necessary for maximizing efficiency in reaching goals—especially mutual goals—is honesty.

Another could be the ability to maximize and affectively arrange priorities.

Anyway, with your situation, I would suggest that you realize that in fact you do have a ‘leader’, and that you should be willing to follow his/her leadership—right or wrong.  Find out if your leadership is or are willing to accept your opinions—give your opinions as honestly, professionally, and respectfully as is allowed by the mandates or protocol of your leaders—and then leave it in his/her/their hands—don’t try to force your opinions.

After having said all that, if you can’t accept the leadership of your leaders, then maybe you need to look for other options.

Respectfully,

Thank you, and yes, I agree, but couldn’t it be possibly that one’s low self-esteem is due to one's lack of experiences with success—academic, financial, relational, etc.? I mean, it has been suggested many times that if one could raise her/his self-esteem that he/she could begin to see success.  I believe that it is the other way around—self-esteem is raised when one begins to feel successful.  What do you think?
