Every WORD ATTITUDE & BEHAVIOR is a direct reflection of the heart of YOUR leadership. No one MADE you say a word No one CAUSED your attitude No one FORCED your behavior YOU made a choice, and that choice always sends a message! What will your message be today? #Choosewisely – at Indiana, USA

Mandela, Lincoln & MLK all understood that to serve the purpose for which they were called, their pursuits would have to flow from a heart of forgiveness rather than one of hatred, bitterness or resentment. Purpose, power & the most meaningful impact flows from a healthy heart!

Self-awareness, without a willingness to act on issues, is actually pretty worthless! It’s a little bit like talking about compassion but never taking a step to help anyone. Be a leader who is willing to take action! #CheckYourself – at Indiana, USA

Changing the world begins with you: Be kind and considerate. Care more about the good of others, than the advancement of self. Be willing to forgive, love and serve those who think differently than you. THIS is where real change in our world happens!

One of the most powerful steps a leader/coach can take to impact their culture is to personally own their contribution to problems on the team. One of the most destructive steps they can take to impact their culture is to blame everyone else for problems! #CheckYourself – at Indiana, USA

Want to build a successful culture of accountability? 1. Set your standards higher than team standards 2. Model those standards 3. Invite others to hold you accountable to those standards 4. Then (and only then), hold others accountable! #BeTheStandard #StartsWithYou

The balance between patience and persistence is one of the greatest challenges a driven leader will face. Patience, at its core is actually a test of humility, selflessness and faith. Wisdom embraces a world that doesn't revolve around...self! 🤔🤔🤔

Self-awareness is one of the most important attributes in leadership. Social-awareness is a close second (the ability to accurately understand others opinions, challenges and needs! Leaders, listening to the HEART is a key to mastering both of these attributes! 👂❤️🤔 – at Wisconsin, USA
