Leading and inspiring the team

If you followed the path in this book, you are on a good trajectory to successfully create a working offensive security program. You established a vision, did some paperwork to have the basics covered, and modeled the path for success. Now it's time to actively walk the way and inspire the team. This also means to take ownership of the program and be accountable and responsible for its outcome. If the team fails with an objective under your leadership, it's your fault. Don't come up with excuses about why someone on the team did not deliver something on time. If an operation fails, it's the leader's fault. You are there to inspire and enable everyone to do their best.
