What have you learned about leadership in your experience?

One of the most important lessons that I have learned is always to search balance between my ideas and these of the others despite the difficulties. It requires knowledge, experience and a lot of ideas to support your team even when you have your own moment of hesitation. Also, I am trying to change my attitude towards the mistakes I make. It does not mean to be overconfident and make the same mistakes but to accept some failures calmly. What else is that I don't need to hide my emotional reactions all the time - the leader has its own fears and joys which do not make him or her weaker. On the contrary, you demonstrate strength when you show emotions when the situation allows it, of course.
