When You Become a Leader

Great leaders aren’t know-it-alls who continuously try to outshine everyone. Instead, they admit when they’re wrong and genuinely want to learn from others. It’s not about being the smartest person in the room. It’s about building a team with the most intelligent people you can find.

When you build a team, you must see their strength as a complement to your weakness, not a threat to your position or authority. No one is an expert in everything; the most robust businesses are built on the most brilliant people – not on one person. At the end of the day, it’s not about being the smartest person in the room. It’s about building a team with the most intelligent people you can find and inspiring them to believe in the impossible.
