- Pick Good Leaders – this is JOB #1 for each of us. Picking the right leaders will do more to shape our future than anything else we do.
- Model Servant Leadership – make a daily choice to focus your energy and your attention on supporting your employees and helping them become more successful.
- Develop Emotional Intelligence – your moods and behaviors drive the moods and behaviors of everyone on your team. Before your team cares about what you know, they want to know that you care.
