Skill sets can be taught, but belief is a gift that changes a career forever.

We all remember that one person. The leader who looked past our shaky hands and “entry-level” resume to see a spark we hadn’t even recognized yet. They didn’t just give us a job; they gave us a permission slip to succeed.

That quiet confidence—the “I know you’ve got this”—becomes the foundation upon which empires are built. An employee will never forget the leader who first believed in them. Don’t just manage milestones; ignite potential.

Be that leader.
