Good leaders unlearn

Years of practice, reading, expanding your knowledge and developing cognitive reasoning skills etc.. teach you how to be a leader.
But along the way, we develop a comfort zone of doing things, and when things change(which is inevitable considering the rate with which technology changes), it becomes hard to accept it because its different than what we learned and its anti-historically proven.
True leaders unlearn, and forget about things along the way(Technology/people related things both)
Gandhi once said-"You must be the change you want to see".  Unlearn the traditional practices, sacred cows and know why the appropriate change is needed. Then do it.
