Summary

This quote emphasizes the qualities of humility and accountability in a good leader. It implies that a good leader should be willing to take responsibility for their mistakes and failures, rather than shifting the blame onto others.

It suggests that a balanced and effective leader is one who prioritizes teamwork, recognizes the collective effort, and avoids seeking personal glory.
