Most people look for recognition. If you don’t give it some will seek out negative recognition to fill that void. It’s crazy but its true. Deal out some fist bumps, some high fives, or some “atta boys” this morning. Be sincere and specific ~ live in the present. #fantheflame #lead  #grow  … Membership Required You...

Don’t play favorites. I see far to often the greatest mechanism to the destruction of leadership is foul play when it comes to the treatment of people.

Clean out your closets… Practice what you preach. If order, neatness, and housekeeping are expected of your people. Hold yourself to a higher standard.
