Hohman believes that a good leader should appreciate what everyone brings to the table.

“Leaders must ask great questions,” says Hohman. “Leaders must be confident and humble. Leaders must be quick to give praise to everyone on the team, and quick to take the blame for other people’s faults. Leaders must always listen and learn more than they speak and teach.”
