Leaders are not perfect.
It’s okay to be transparent about who you are. It’s okay to tell “war stories” about that time you were wr—… wro—… that time you were less than fully right.
Don’t turn every meeting into a personal therapy session, of course. It’s not all about you and how you overcame your problems and issues. But don’t be afraid to open up and let people know when they are facing something with which you also have experience to share.
