The best leaders don't micromanage. They build the right conditions—clear rules, aligned incentives, transparent processes—and then step back. True leadership means creating a system where people can operate independently, make decisions, and drive progress without needing constant direction. It's the difference between centralized control and sustainable autonomy. This principle applies everywhere, from team management to protocol governance to DAO ecosystems. When you focus on empowering others rather than controlling outcomes, that's when real momentum happens.
