Leadership Reminder: Trust Your Team Two weeks ago, as I was about to leave for vacation, I started typing a message to the Buffer PM team: 'While I'm out, remember to...' Then I stopped. They already know this. I realized I could just go on vacation without any parting words. I am grateful to Amanda Marochko, Brandon Lucas Green, Diego Sanchez, Nathan Nannenga, and Martin Gloeckle (my design lead partner) for their stellar work, especially for integrating with Threads. ❤️ The best teams don't need "while I am out..." notes. They excel when given trust and autonomy. #Leadership #TrustYourTeam"

This is the definition of true leadership...! Parenting adult humans whom you did not biologically bring into this world is both imprudent and stress-inducing! 😋 Hope you're having an amazing vaca?! 🌴

Before jumping into the startup world, I would empower others by delegating authority before vacation. The startup community often overlooks the importance of mutual support.

A leader who trusts her team: rare, and beautiful.
