Many people think great leaders are defined by skills, strategies, or charisma. While these qualities matter, they are not what sets the best leaders apart. The number one sign of a great leader is how your presence makes others feel. Leadership is about more than competence—it’s about the impact you leave in every interaction. When you radiate positivity, encouragement, and confidence, others feel empowered.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees.
