And pretty important that that person's a good leader.
And I think one of the things I underestimated about great leaders that Ravi Gupta is another person that I would list and people that have really impacted me.
At one point, I called everyone I knew.
I was like, define good leader.
I'm going to do a survey.
Ravi gave my favorite answer.
He was like, it's not hard.
A great leader is someone that other people want to follow.
That's it.
Everyone else had given much more ornate definitions and Ravi's was my favorite.
What I've learned about what is shared in common amongst people that others want to follow.
One of the big ones is that they are hyper-communicative with those people.
and they're consistent and they lead from the front.
They take risk, they take arrows for the team.
They communicate like crazy with the team.
If something's changing, they over communicate it.
They're honest, like all these things add up to someone that people wanna follow.

for a long time, not because I was trying to be bad, just because I was so excitable.
I am so excitable.
