Shine the light brightly on others and you will bask in the reflection. Be known as the manager who gives his team credit where credit is due. Provide your people with opportunities to present their ideas to customers as well as senior management. There is nothing more rewarding than having a reputation for being the leader who everyone wants to work for.
