278. The strength of a leader lies in their ability to build a team that complements their strengths. Founders should focus on their unique genius zone and delegate tasks that others can do better. Hiring strategically, prioritizing revenue-generating roles, and leveraging mentors and advisors are crucial for scaling a business effectively. The real strength of any great leader isn't measured by how much they do alone—it's measured by who they surround themselves with and how effectively they empower those people to succeed on behalf of the organization.
