It's difficult to respect anybody who publicly takes credit for the success of their team. People in leadership positions should always look to defer.
It's important to remember that you are only a leader if people choose to follow you.
Otherwise, you are just leveraging your position, and that's probably not a good long-term strategy, nor is it the right thing to do.
Credit means much more when it is given, not taken.
