"القائد الجيد هو الشخص الذي يتحمل قدرًا أكبر قليلًا من اللوم ويأخذ قدرًا أقل قليلًا من الثناء"

Simplified Meaning:

A good leader is someone who doesn't just take praise when things go well but also steps up to take responsibility when things go wrong. Imagine a project at work where some parts went great, but other parts had problems. If you have a good boss, they will make sure to recognize the whole team's efforts for the success and not just claim all the glory for themselves. On the other hand, if there were mistakes, rather than blaming the team, the good boss would take responsibility and say, "I should have guided you better." This approach helps build trust and respect among team members. They see their leader as fair and supportive, encouraging everyone to work harder and be more committed. Such behavior also motivates the team to take ownership and be more accountable because they see their leader doing the same. For instance, in great sports teams, coaches often praise their players for victories while shouldering the responsibility for losses. Applying this idea in everyday life means recognizing others for their hard work and being ready to step in when things don't go as planned.
