Leadership Involves The Heavy Burden Of Responsibility,

A Lot Of People Believe They Are Successful Because They Have Everything They Want. They Have Added Value To Themselves. But I Believe Significance Comes When You Add Value To Others And You Can't Have True Success Without Significance.

I Vividly Remember A Conversation I Had Many Years Ago In 1974, Which Marked A Turning Point In My Leadership Journey. I Was Sitting At A Holiday Inn With My Friend, Kurt Campmeyer, When He Asked Me If I Had A Personal Growth Plan. I Didn't. In Fact, I Didn't Even Know You Were Supposed To Have One.

Good Leaders Understand That They Are Stewards. They Must Find The Best People They Can, Giving Them The Opportunity To Join In The Journey Developing Them, And Encouraging Them To Reach Their Potential. But They Must Hold On To People Lightly. Those Who Start With You Seldom Finish With You.

The More People See That They Are Being Understood, They Become More Motivated To Understand Your Point Of View.

If Everyone Doesn't Pay The Price To Win, Then Everyone Will Pay The Price Of Losing.
