Comment: I've long liked this quote by Margaret Thatcher: "Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't." I believe it also holds true for leaders and experts. If someone feels the need to proclaim themselves as a leader or an expert, it often suggests that they may not truly possess those qualities.Being powerful is like being a lady.
If you have to tell people you are, you aren’t.
