The skills required to excel as an individual contributor are vastly different than the skills leveraged to lead a team and different still from those needed to inspire an organization.

Becoming a strong leader (and maintaining leadership skills) requires awareness, reflection, focus, and dedicated practice.
On top of individual applications, when leadership principles are applied and integrated within a team environment, positive outcomes can have an exponential impact.
