Answer: to lead confidently in times of distress

Explanation: Based upon this excerpt, the trait that Odysseus has learned as part of his transformation is to lead confidently in times of distress.

As you can see in the excerpt here, Odysseus if giving his men orders what to do even though it seems they are all going to die soon. He tells them to run while he holds them off for as long as he can, which also shows his bravery.
