Leading others is a choice. It isn’t about your title.
Many people with executive titles are terrible leaders, and many people without a fancy title are outstanding leaders.
More than your title, being a leader is about influencing change and inspiring and motivating others. Leaders paint a picture of a better world and work with others to create it.
