My Leadership Philosophy

"I won't ask anyone to do a task I wouldn't do myself. And I can't grow unless I'm helping the people around me grow too."

I take the heatWhen something goes wrong, I don't point fingers. I stand in front of my team and take the hit. Same with hard tasks, I take them on myself.
Last one offlineI don't ask people to work late and then go to sleep. When a situation demands it, I'm the last one offline.
Grow them past meI help people grow. If one day they reach my position, I will happily move on to something else. This year I have coached 4 team members through 6 certifications.
