Do you have a strong winner mentality ? Be cautious !
A relentless need to win, not just in high-stakes situations, can undermine a leader’s effectiveness and harm their team and organization.
Dominating discussions stifles creativity and discourages others from contributing. Insisting on being right erodes trust and collaboration. Taking credit or seeking recognition for every success demotivates team members and breeds resentment.
Pick your battles ! True leadership is about creating an environment where everyone thrives. It’s about lifting others up, not standing above them.
