Self reflection is key. 

If it happens in your career that you are in a leadership role, self reflection becomes even more important. After nudging the team towards a mindset of writing automated tests for the last two years, I had to be honest with myself that this way of working is not ideal for a young startup in its exploratory phase. And you know what? Talking about that with the team was an easy task and did not feel weird or wrong in the finest way – because we have established a culture of psychological safety at OnlineDoctor! Don't underestimate cultural aspects like this – it might become relevant for yourself sooner than expected.
