Your leadership qualities are built day by day, in how you handle conflict, how you inspire others, and how you hold yourself accountable. There’s no final checkpoint. The best leaders are lifelong learners, always curious, always refining.
So instead of chasing the idea of being “a great leader,” we should focus on becoming better ones — one decision, one conversation, one lesson at a time.
