Stepping Down As A Leader - The Mahathir or Ardern Way?

Besides politics, it is rare for leaders in business organisations to step aside as it takes a different level of self-awareness to do so. 

As leaders balance the desire for power and corporate responsibility, there is a right time to leave. When is the right time? 

Should it be at the leader’s peak or lowest? How should it be done? We discuss this with Hetal Doshi, CEO & Organizational Psychologist of O-Psych, to know when it’s time to let go, no matter how much leaders desire to cling on.
