Ez 34:16).

Why do leaders fail? Isolation and inability to learn. They are afraid to express doubt, admit vulnerability or seek advice from subordinates. Leaders must actively work to seek feedback and a reality check. They must be open to asking questions and framing issues.

Great leaders will need to ask the right questions and balance inquiry with advocacy.

Trust in yourself, your dream and spirit.
