Effective leaders are invested in seeing everyone on their team succeed.  As such, they are willing to help their people achieve that success.  They will do whatever they can to set people up to succeed.  When the individual team member is successful, the team is successful, and, ultimately, the leader is successful.  True leadership success is measured by the success of the members of the team.

Effective leaders will go the extra mile to help their team members succeed.  When one person wins, everyone wins!
