Great Leaders Build More Leaders
Every founder who finds traction with their business faces an inevitable evolution in how they spend their time, from being the person who does everything (sales, tech support, emptying the garbage) to being primarily a people manager. And as the business grows larger and more complex, it becomes time to transition again to a next-level role that is trickier but more profound. Entrepreneur and author Jay Shetty recently put it this way: “The best leaders don’t create more followers, they create more leaders.” (He credited the insight to motivational author Roy T. Bennett.)

How do you SURVIVE UNTHINKABLE TRAGEDY and still find BEAUTY in the WORLD?
ON SEPTEMBER 24, 2021, the poet, visual artist, and novelist Rachel Eliza Griffiths married the author Salman Rushdie. That same day, her best friend, the poet Kamilah Aisha Moon, who was set to speak at their wedding, died suddenly and unexpectedly. Within the first year of their marriage, Griffiths and Rushdie faced tragedy once again when Rushdie was nearly killed in a knife attack at a reading. In The Flower Bearers, out this January, Griffiths writes about what it takes to not only survive these compound tragedies but still feel alive and love and to still look at the world as a poet. We live in a time of incalculable losses. Most of us are trying to figure out how to live our lives while staying awake—how to reckon with what's gone without being overcome by sadness. Griffiths’s memoir, excerpted below, is a guide, in part, to living with and through grief and an ode to the everyday miracle of endurance.
