What people get wrong about leadership:
Leadership is a skill, not a title.
When you’re promoted into a leadership role, you get the title first. Whether you’re actually a good leader is something you have to prove through your actions.
Everyone has the potential to become a leader.
But having potential doesn’t mean everyone is ready to lead.
Leadership requires self-awareness, accountability, communication, emotional intelligence, and the willingness to grow.
A promotion gives you authority. Your behaviour earns you leadership.
