Every team must have leadership providing members
with direction; he/she
must be the “author of vision, mentor, guide, motivator, and
a source of encouragement
[support]” (Daianu & Abrudan, 2015).

Leaders empower and encourage teamwork by reinforcing the "No 'I' in Team rule", while at the same time bestowing independence, injecting self-esteem, and motivating members of the group. Simply put, “leadership is a ‘we’ thing, not an ‘I’ thing” (Drennan & Richey, 2012).
