When you are launching a startup, especially for the first time, learning to bootstrap, pitch and raise finance will be a bigger priority than developing leadership skills. But as the business grows and needs more people on board, your ability to lead a team will be crucial to its success.

There are countless books, online webinars and training courses on how to become an effective leader, but some might argue that the best teachers in the world are dogs. As species, humans and canines are worlds apart, but as pack animals, dogs are amazing team players, and it all comes down to strong and effective leadership.
