The lid is the top that you can't break unless your leadership ability increases. If I want my teams to operate at a higher level of quality, then I need to increase me, not work on them. There's another book by John Maxwell called the Five Levels of Leadership. But the big takeaway from that one is that the further you go up in terms of the levels of leadership, the less it's about you and the more it's about the people that you're you're leading.
