Skills to be a leader

Being a leader takes many skills, including building confidence, handling conflicts and leading a team. From this audiobook, I understood how to make many changes, such as addressing imposter syndrome, handling disputes, and problem-solving so you can assist many people. Overcoming challenges is something that I know that people want to have from teen member to lead member. When a teen leads at a young age, it prepares them to be a leader, and I wish I had been taught this method when I was a teen, but it was not possible. I enjoyed the knowledge of this audiobook.
