## Resource

Confidence matters more in leadership than most people realize. In this episode of Remarkable TV, I'm sharing practical ways you can build confidence as a leader — not through ego or pretending, but through growth, progress, and intentional action. I'll walk you through: The confidence-competence loop Why confidence and skill reinforce each other How positive self-talk impacts leadership Why starting small matters How reflecting on progress builds momentum What organizations often miss when developing leaders One of the biggest lessons I've learned is this: confidence and competence build each other. The more progress we make, the more confidence we gain — and the more confidence we gain, the more willing we are to keep growing. A more confident leader is a more effective leader.
