DEAR LEADER,
If your office struggles every time you are absent, that is not proof that you are indispensable.
It may be proof that you have not prepared anyone to lead without you.
Share what you know. Explain how decisions are made. Give promising people real responsibility—not just errands. Let them lead meetings, solve problems, and make decisions while you are still there to coach them.
A leader who keeps all knowledge and authority may feel powerful today.
But the institution becomes fragile tomorrow.
Leadership is not proven by how much depends on you.
It is proven by how much can continue because of what you built.
Make yourself valuable.
Then build people capable of replacing you.
That is succession. That is legacy.
Build people. Build leaders. Build the nation. 🇵đź‡
