Today’s Takeaway: Identify one team member's key strength and commit to reinforcing it the next time you interact. Provide a task or responsibility that aligns with their skill set to empower them to shine.

Think Ahead: How can your leadership style evolve to foster growth at scale? Consider creating systems where every team member can leverage their strengths collectively, transforming your organization into a high-performing team with a shared vision.
