I've lost connection with people.

And when I've been too low for too long, I step on people's toes and

I don't empower them, and I lose big picture perspective.

If I look back over the last five years, 90% of my mistakes, leadership mistakes, have been in these two situations.

Too high for too long, too low for too long.

And I've learned that just because you can fix it, just because you can do it, doesn't mean that you should do it.

you can allow other people to learn, even if you can do it.

This is what builds a really strong culture.

And what is culture?

I think the term culture is thrown out a lot.

For me, culture is a shared set of beliefs, values,

Goals and purpose.

And when people align with those things, they become a part of your culture.

And the way that you build a really strong culture is clearly identifying beliefs, values, goals, purpose.

And if everyone is aligned within a culture on those things, your culture is generally stronger.

more unified.

One of the ways that you destroy culture when it comes to being a leader is stepping on people's toes, being in the details for too long, doing people's job that they can and should be doing, not trusting

not trusting teams, not trusting people.

When people feel empowered, when people feel trusted, when people feel like they can own their role and they know what success looks like, there is a measurement for success.

They can thrive.
