“It doesn't make sense to hire smart people and tell them what to do. We hire smart people so they can tell us what to do.” - #SteveJobs #Leadership #SelfConfidence

Self-confidence comes from acknowledging both your strengths and your blind spots—not from having all the answers all the time. Be curious, ask questions, and be willing to learn from others. #TuesdayTip #LeadershipDevelopment
