Going against expert recommendation gets attention, and that's about it. I think a good leader stands out by selecting good technical advisers getting their input, weighing the options and compromising between conflicting suggestions of those experts (e.g. doctor says shut down, economists say shut down will be disaster). And most of all, a good leader articulates the decision they made well and gets everyone in the leadership team on the same page, singing the same song, and leading by example (like wearing a mask in public) so that the people they lead follow along.
