🫸 Looking back on 30 years of leadership I've received and given, I’ve realised something:
No one remembers the boss with the fanciest title
They remember the leader who made them feel safe
🫷 The best leader I ever worked for put it simply:
➡️ “If we fail, that’s on me. If we succeed, that’s on them.”
He fought for us in rooms we weren’t in
He recommended us for promotions
He shielded us from the noise - politics, micromanagement, false urgency
💫 And the result?
The team gave everything
Performance skyrocketed
Trust became unshakable
🥇 Because when people feel safe, they give their best
👉 Who’s the leader you’ll never forget - and why?
