The tenets laid out by those bullet points are largely ego driven. For instance, "controlling personal ego to consider the higher self", "self-mastery of one’s spiritual growth", "living your purpose", "leadership change agent", etc. deal overtly with the establishment and growth of a personal self. As such, they are directly antithetical to Buddhist practice. The remaining points are ancillary.
Some Tibetan lama somewhere once said that when you go to buy rice, it comes in a paper bag. You don't got there with the intention of buying the bag. It just comes with the rice - which is what you are after. No offense intended, but pretty much everything in your question is just a brown paper bag. Wisdom and compassion are likewise important...but again. Paper bag. We don't set out seeking to develop these virtues, they appear as a result of insight.
