Will Humility Take Your Leadership to the Next Level?

Leverage your influence to impact others.

Relationships are more important than opportunities.
Focus on finding “people of peace”.
Start with “DNA”, progress to the “Skeleton”, then to the “Skin”, not “Skin” to “Skeleton” to “DNA”!
What are you 1) trying to prove 2) trying to hide and 3) afraid of losing?
Write a “lessons learned” at the end of each year.
Being “abnormally imbalanced” on principles increases your “overall balance”.
