“What is the first step toward becoming an excellent leader? The most important first step for leaders to have a solid foundation is being right with themselves. Identifying and equipping themselves with their own development needs. Making sure that they have the integrity and character needed to build the proper relationships, foster team building, and win people’s trust.
