A person does not have leadership, and you cannot train your leadership when you are alone.

Leadership mentality must be good. No matter how scared or frustrated you are, you cannot show your fear, uncertainty or doubt.
You need to stay optimistic.

The products and internal culture of a company are all formulated by you.
At the same time, you must understand that unless you are a person who leads by example, you cannot let your employees accept it.

Iran has a tenth person system. As long as there are nine people unanimously passed the plan, the tenth person must object, no matter how unreasonable it is.
You need someone who dares to sing against you, because this person may be the representative of most of the customer.
