Most managers imagine climbing a career ladder. They envision themselves moving up in status and power.

Alone.

But leaders aren’t alone. They have to be leading somebody. And what happens to them if the leader leaves them hung out to dry? Left to overcome obstacles on their own, while their boss chases awards and acclaim.

Instead, help them overcome. Realize you are there to help your team members become more. To help them connect dots. And to help them help each other. Then you become a leader of leaders.
