Well, for one, he didn't know who his friends were (who to trust).

1. Caesar was never an emperor. He was a dictator. He was a good dictator who put through many important reforms that benefited the people(not the rich folks who later killed him). He put forth many land reforms and fixed the calendar which is almost the same one we use today. 2. Caesar believed in clemency towards his enemies. He could have killed all of his political rival as was the trend set before by Sulla and Marius. This eventually got Caesar killed. Augustus,the 1st emperor, learned the lesson and made sure all of his enemies were pushing up daisies. Caesar was very harsh however to the Gauls who went back on their word and revolted. Had they not revolted, they would not have had to pay such a harsh penalty. 3. As a general he was genius and his battle strategies are still studied to this day. 4. If you look at the big picture, he had no option other than take power. His enemies had forced his hand and they thought he would back down. They were wrong. People make the mistake of assuming all dictators are bad. A dictator is sometimes necessary when the system does not work. The Roman republic was designed to manage a city, not an empire. If it weren't for Caesar, Rome would not have lasted another 500 years.

A worse leader than who? Did you mean to say that Caesar was a bad leader? or are you looking for things that he could have changed about himself to be a better leader? In all honesty, Caesar was one of the better leaders in Rome. Look up Nero, Trajan, and all the other Emperors if you don't believe me.
Caesar was human, so he did have some flaws. It is my own opinion that trusting people was not a flaw of Caesar's. Yes, it is what brought about his demise, but it is also what made him a great leader. How should he know this guy he thought was his friend would kill him? And so goes politics.
Many people will say that his adulterous behavior was not a good thing. Everyone knows about his thing with Cleopatra. As immoral as it may have been, it set up Rome and Egypt in a place as political allies for quite a while.

His morals were terrible and why did he give the US the hottest month of the year.
