I learned something powerful about leadership last year.

I never told my team what to do first.

We were stuck on a project that seemed impossible to finish.

Instead of jumping in with solutions, I sat down with each team member.

I asked what support they needed and what barriers they faced.

Then I spent my time removing those obstacles for them.

Our productivity increased by 60% in just two months.

Great leaders don't create followers. They make more leaders.

What's the most empowering thing you've done as a leader?
