What great leaders consistently do:

Set direction and lead change.
The best leaders craft a clear, credible vision, translate it into strategy, remove roadblocks, and mobilize people to navigate change.

Enable two-way communication.
They replace command-and-control with “healthy organizational conversation” that builds engagement and strategic alignment (intimacy, interactivity, inclusion, intentionality). They make it safe to speak up, challenge ideas, and learn from mistakes, thus, driving innovation and performance.

Develop people by coaching.
The can be mentors when needed, but focus on coaching. Great leaders act as coaches, asking better questions, giving targeted feedback, building capability, and fueling courage.
