North and South preferred different traits.

The Confederates favoured a dramatic, fiery, almost mad bravery, modelled on the Cavaliers of the English civil war. Stonewall Jackson fitted that role perfectly. Joe Johnston didn't, and he was replaced by John Hood, who did, and led his army to disaster on account of it.

The Union was eventually led to victory by two very different characters, who happened to get on well, apparently because they both came from Ohio, and felt a kinship as fellow Northwesterners. Grant was a calm, methodical planner. Sherman was outwardly grim and forbidding, but also a creative problem-solver. It is possible to argue that Sherman's plan for wrecking the farms and railroads of Georgia shortened the war by months, whereas Grant's ten-month Siege of Petersburg could only be described as a plodding tactic.
