As a teacher, your value is what you personally deliver in the room. As a leader, your value is what your people deliver when you are not there. That single shift changes the whole job, from performing to developing.
The hardest part is letting others do it differently, and sometimes worse at first, than you would. A leader who cannot tolerate imperfection in others never builds anyone and ends up alone at the centre of a business that cannot grow.
Document one process that currently lives only in your head.
Your value shifts from what you deliver to what your team delivers.
