A lot of rockstar ICs flop in leadership because they’re birds who can’t teach flight.

Being great at *doing* doesn’t mean you can *teach*, *coach*, or *calm the chaos*.

Leadership isn’t a promotion ... it’s a profession, and most never trained for it.

Great post! In my opinion, leaders are one who are self-aware and open for continuous improvement. Some are born with leadership traits and for others it takes building leadership skills. To build those skills, key element is self reflection and humbleness over position and titles.
