Once you have that foundation, you can understand and appreciate differences in others and build stronger teams.” “The effective leader leaves awake leaders behind them—they grow people, they share their experiences, and they create a culture of development.” “Sharing stories of your wins and your failures allows others to learn faster and helps build confidence and capability within your team.” “Step back, examine your strengths, and build from them—it allows you to make better decisions and create a more fulfilling experience as a leader.” Resources OpenPlaybook: Driving successful strategic change through strengths-based leadership, team building and execution Follow OpenPlaybook on Facebook Connect with Larry Dodd on LinkedIn
