First, it emphasizes the importance of aligning your words with your actions; if you promise something, follow through, as consistency demonstrates integrity. Second, focus on uplifting others: spotlight their contributions both privately and publicly, and provide opportunities that align with their strengths. Third, invite honest feedback by asking open questions like “What can I do better?” and listening attentively without defensiveness.
