Is it wrong to take credit for my team's work?

When the team wins, the praise lands on you, and you let it stay. You do not grab it, but you do not send it back either. And you have started to notice the quiet cost of that silence. The fact that it bothers you is a good sign about you. Credit is a kind of currency, and where it flows people learn what you value. When it pools around you, the people who actually did the work learn that their effort becomes your reputation. They rarely say anything. They just slowly give a little less of themselves, because why give more. The fix is small and public. Next time the praise comes, say the names out loud, that was her idea, she carried it. It costs you nothing real and it buys you something you cannot get any other way: a team that knows you see them. Redirecting credit does not shrink you. It is one of the few things that actually makes a leader bigger.
