Count in hierarchy

I have a hierarchy in my Employee table as follow: 

elimey68_0-1599480361733.png

It means that each teamLeader has many team members. 

How can I dynamically count the number of memebers per team leader??

following the suggestions in this post :
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/DAX-SQL-window-function-equivalent/td-p/146128

I made a calculated column like this : 

MemebrsCount =
COUNTAX (
FILTER ( Employee; EARLIER (Employee[TeamLeaderName]) = Employee[TeamLeaderName] );
Employee[FullName]
)
 
 
and it counts me the numbers of team members per team leader

@Anonymous - So are you saying this is solved? Or are you still looking for a measure to do this? The solution will depend upon your data if you can share sample data. Generally involves using the PATH set of functions, like PATHLENGTH, etc.

Can you share sample data and sample output in table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
