Absolutely. The effectiveness of any leader is not measured by what they do alone, but by what they enable others to achieve.

I loved this article Taha from an IC perspective. As I was reading this article, you have highlighted some valuable food for thought. Great leaders in my opinion encourage a "bottoms-up" culture and heed to "the most dangerous phrase in history is we've always done it this way".

RE the "psychological safety" point, how exactly as a leader did you go about implementing "Made "I don't know" a badge of courage" and "Turned code reviews into explorations, not trials" ingrained into your team's culture? Would love to hear your perspective
