Ultimately, leadership is not about glorious crowning acts. It's about 
keeping your team focused on a goal and motivated to do their best to 
achieve it, especially when the stakes are high and the consequences really 
matter. It is about laying the groundwork for others' success, and then 
standing back and letting them shine.

No matter how good you think you are as a leader, my goodness, the people 
around you will have all kinds of ideas for how you can get better. So for 
me, the most fundamental thing about leadership is to have the humility to 
continue to get feedback and to try to get better - because your job is to 
try to help everybody else get better.
