I have a team member that has been a Bronze Team Leader every month except for one month since joining 7 months ago. Even though this member has no active PSA's he has gained his CSA shares for being a Bronze Team Leader and this is where his income is coming from the CSA's so never discount the value of becoming a team Leader.
Another thing to keep in mind is that your credibility as a Team Leader can be more beneficial to you as you are growing a team and giving guidance.
