“Help me to accomplish the purpose of my journey.” - Genesis 24:12, A Servant’s Prayer



Alignment and Balance

“Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance.” – Brian Tracy


When the Team Comes First

“When the team comes first, personal recognition, interpersonal concerns, relationships, and any number of internal and external issues that can challenge a team’s cohesiveness, are put in proper perspective.” – Scott Beare


Reinforced Behavior Gets Repeated

“Without a doubt, providing recognition is one of the best ways (if not the best way) to build and maintain superior performance. The reason for that is quite simple: reinforced behavior gets repeated.” – Eric Harvey


When People are at the Heart of Things

“Good leaders make people feel that they’re at the very heart of things, not at the periphery. Everyone feels that he or she makes a difference to the success of the organization. When that happens, people feel centered and that gives their work meaning.” – Warren Bennis


As You Are

“As you are, so your staff shall be.”


Strategic Planning and Vision

“Strategic planning is worthless unless there is first a strategic vision.” – John Naisbitt


The Very Essence of Leadership

“The very essence of leadership is that you have to have a vision. It’s got to be a vision you articulate clearly and forcefully on every occasion. You can’t blow an uncertain trumpet.” – Theodore Hesburgh


Good Beliefs and Good Behaviors

“Knowing what’s right is absolutely critical to business ethics, but it’s just half the battle. You see, ethics ‘happens’ only when good beliefs lead to good behaviors.” – Eric Harvey


People Will Never Forget How You Made Them Feel

“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou


Start Small

“You will find it easier to do a single, small piece of a large project than to start on the whole job.” – Brian Tracy


Single Handed Success

“There is no such thing as a single-handed success: When you include and acknowledge all those in your corner, you propel yourself, your teammates and your supporters to greater heights.”
