Leaders add value to others. The Law of Addition states that good leaders add value to others rather than simply focusing on tasks or goals. Leaders can add value by truly valuing others, making themselves more valuable to team members, and understanding what others find meaningful. Good leaders focus on adding value to their team members to help them succeed and feel appreciated.
