“Authenticity is about imperfection. And authenticity is a very human quality. To be authentic is to be at peace with your imperfections.

The great leaders can't do everything; they are the ones who look to others to help them. Great leaders don't see themselves as great; they see themselves as human.” KnowsHumansLooksHelpingQualityLeaderHonestWeaknessAuthenticityStrongestImperfectionGreat LeaderHuman Qualities Author:Simon Sinek
