In Ryan Holiday's book "The Ego Is the Enemy," he emphasizes the importance of supporting others rather than seeking personal accolades. The essence of true leadership lies in helping those around you to succeed, rather than merely trying to make others appear impressive. This selfless approach fosters a collaborative environment where everyone's strengths can shine.

Holiday encourages readers to be facilitators, or "anteambulos," by clearing obstacles for those in higher positions. By prioritizing the success of others, you inadvertently create opportunities for your own growth. This mindset not only enhances team dynamics but also paves the way for personal advancement, illustrating that selflessness can lead to mutual success.
