I read a great article about surprising leadership qualities, basically warmth and competence. I would totally agree. My current boss is warm but he doesn't know his job well. My previous one had to work on warmth, that took a little while but I felt really good my last year with her, but she knew her stuff very well. So of course I think I have these, right now I am feeling some awesome competence as I am again navigating not jumping past my boss but knowing my stuff, and having my colleagues come to me with questions on a regular basis.

Validation is a human need that we all share whether we know this or not. Nice that you are receiving it.
