Odysseus’ desire for kleos

The Greeks believed that hubris was a punishable offense but supported the desire or drive for kleos. Can the concepts coexist/work together or are they in conflict? Is Odysseus’ desire for kleos reinforced or motivated by his hubris? Can a leader posses both and still be a effective? You can cite evidence from the Odyssey if you would like too.
