I loved this reflection from #QConLondon β€” it's a great reminder that real growth is about both what you learn and who you learn alongside.

The lesson?

πŸ‘‰ Admitting you’re wrong isn’t a weaknessβ€”it’s a strength.

Creon’s refusal to change course destroyed him. Sophocles taught us that self-awareness and humility are the marks of true #leadership.

Creon forbids the burial of Polynices, defying divine laws. Antigone defies him, driven by moral duty. Warnings from prophets and loved ones fall on deaf ears. His pride blinds him, and tragedy strikesβ€”lives are lost, including his own family.

As students in Greece in the 1990s, we had to study Sophocles's Antigone. It’s a timeless tale of power, pride, and the cost of refusing to admit one’s mistakes. Creon’s tragic flaw is his inability to see past his own decree.
