The Value of Admitting Uncertainty

Admitting to uncertainty can be a powerful tool for leaders. It demonstrates credibility and allows for openness within teams by fostering a culture of curiosity. A leader who occasionally says 'I don’t know' establishes trust, signaling to others that they truly know the answers when they provide them. Furthermore, in an age where information is readily available online, using phrases like 'I don’t know yet, but I will find out' can show initiative and willingness to seek solutions.
