The Foundations of Effective Leadership

For a man to successfully lead a woman in a relationship, he must demonstrate greater competence and capability than she possesses. This principle reflects the need for men to justify their leadership through merit rather than relying solely on traditional authority. A capable leader recognizes the skills and strengths of their partner, using that understanding to foster growth in both themselves and their partner. This mutual enhancement not only strengthens the relationship but also positions men to be leaders worth following over time.
