Well it has been a real whirlwind so far. It took a good week or administrative delays to get me into my classes, but we made it. The down side has been starting classes already a week behind. The upside is that most of my classes concern themselves with subjects I am very comfortable with.… Read More

I’m sitting in an airport right now with time to kill essentially and inevitably, my mind wanders. Big surprise right?

The Law of the Big MO: Momentum is a leader’s best friend. Why is momentum a leader’s best friend? Many times momentum is the only thing that makes the difference between losing and winning. Momentum is like a magnifying glass; it makes things look bigger than they really are. Even average people can perform far… Read More

The Law of Victory: victorious leaders possess an unwillingness to accept defeat. The alternative to winning is totally unacceptable to them. When the pressure is on, great leaders are at their best. Whatever is inside them comes to the surface. The team doesn’t win a championship its players are working from different agendas. Leaders who… Read More
B.S. in Best Practices
Have you ever sat in a meeting with auditors or other third party professionals who will include the phrase “best practices” in their argument or report?

The Law of Buy-in: People buy into the leader, then the vision. The leader finds the dream and then the people. The people find the leader and then the dream. People don’t at first follow worthy causes. They follow worthy leaders who promote causes they can believe in. Every message that people receive in filtered… Read More
Social Confessions
I am never surprised, but always intrigued by the apparent need by the larger percentage of the population to disclose, to reveal, to make confessions. So much of this is done to near or complete strangers. Social networks have provided a global forum for confessions (disclosures) to occur. Where once a person who felt so… Read More

The Law of the Picture: People do what people see. Great leaders always seem to embody two seemingly disparate qualities. They are both highly visionary and highly practical. The leader’s effective modeling of the vision makes the picture come alive. Followers may doubt what their leaders say, but they usually believe what they do. The… Read More

The Law of Empowerment: Only secure leaders give power to others. Leading well is not about enriching yourself – it’s about empowering others. The number one enemy of empowerment is the fear of losing what we have. To push people down, you have to go down with them. Enlarging others makes you larger. I certainly… Read More
