As a leader of the team, you will get plenty of credit for the team's accomplishments. Come to think of it, you are working together and riding on your teams effort. It is therefore you do not reserve all the credits to yourself. Instead, recognize everyone around you, let them know how much they mean to you, acknowledge their efforts by telling them what they are doing that is really terrific and how much they are being appreciated.
Some people have reasons for not doing this. They think the team members already know how much they are being appreciated and they don’t need to hear it again. How wrong can that be...
The recipient of appreciation NEVER feels that the thanks is unwarranted. People are way more accustomed to not being acknowledged for the things they do. So when you do acknowledge them, you create a bond and a trust that is rare and special. Think of the last time your name is being singled out or how your leader addresses te company's success by crediting the efforts to the employees. What was that feeling like?
If you think people already know their strengths and you do not need to remind them about it, then you are wrong. They may well know their strengths, but they often think others do not recognize it. So when you do point it out, that is a special moment for them.
To add, it also means that you are focusing on what is right with your team. They will all appreciate that. When you focus on what is right, you will get more “right” in return. That is what they will all strive to do. So your appreciation of others also helps to build your business.
