• Know yourself
Recognize your strengths and work on your weaknesses. Never be afraid of asking
questions or taking additional training. You don't need to know everything or be
the best. If you're weak on detail work, make sure you have people on your team
who excel in that. Surround yourself with people who make the company look
good, not "yes men" who only say what they think you want to hear.

9. Confidence skills
Without confidence , there is No Leadership
Self-confidence is the fundamental basis from which leadership grows. Trying
to teach leadership without first building confidence is like building a house on
a foundation of sand. It may have a nice coat of paint, but it is ultimately shaky
at best. While the leadership community has focused on passion,
communication, and empowerment, they've ignored this most basic element
and in the process they have planted these other components of leadership in
a bed of quicksand.
