Leaders
I truly believe this is the sign of a good leader. If you are the example then you will surely produce more great leaders. We made need followers at a certain time but our goal is for them all to become leaders and produce more leaders throughout the career.

It makes a point. I think "good" is missing at the end. Should be how many "good" leaders you create. Good leaders will train future leaders who will hopefully turn out to be good leaders themselves. They could potentially do a poor job and turn out poor leaders though they themselves are deemed good leaders.

Totally agree with this assessment. Your job as a leader is to produce future leaders that can carry on the mission when you and I have retired or are gone!

One thing I heard from someone who inspires me is "if the people below you can't do a better job than you when you're gone, you were an ineffective leader." The best leaders had to be followers at one point.
