2024/09/18

Legacy. What will yours be? Every great leader quickly recognizes people who make a difference in their lives. Maybe it was a school teacher. Or a sports coach.

No Excuses Leadership

Grow Great - A City Government Leadership Podcast ·

2024/08/14

You’ll either find a way…or an excuse. Lisa and I were discussing understanding. Mostly, we were considering this quote from an unknown author… If only we fought just as hard to understand as we do to disagree. It morphed into a conversation about the difference between high and low performers. Not that there’s only […]The post No Excuses Leadership appeared first on GROW GREAT.

Great Leaders Don’t Misplace Their Empathy

Grow Great - A City Government Leadership Podcast ·

2024/08/07

From childhood until this present moment…I suffer from high empathy. When recently describing my empathy I reiterated how the depth of my empathy wasn’t some universal brush used to paint everybody or every situation. I’m discriminating. Selective. Because I know I’m a finite resource with only so much to give, only so much time […]The post Great Leaders Don’t Misplace Their Empathy appeared first on GROW GREAT.

Get Uncomfortable, Grow Great

Grow Great - A City Government Leadership Podcast ·

2024/07/31

Be scared and do it anyway. Be under-qualified, and get in the room anyway. Be messy, imperfect, and unsure and show up anyway. Comfort is the enemy of growth. Get uncomfortable. Growth requires learning. Learning requires us to attempt things we’ve not tried before. Along the way, there will be missteps, mistakes, and failures.

Self-Improvement For City Government Leaders

Grow Great - A City Government Leadership Podcast ·

2024/06/20

Two recent physical ailments provoked me to think about how I might improve a third problem. Honestly, had it not been for the first two I may have avoided getting too serious about figuring out the other one.

Don’t Be Like Eeyore

Grow Great - A City Government Leadership Podcast ·

2024/05/01

They’re always down and out. They complain incessantly. They’re adept at seeing the dark side of every challenge. Or opportunity. You don’t dare ask them how they’re doing because they’ll tell you. Complaining is their main source of vibrancy. Eeyore wasn’t a leader. That behavior won’t help us become leaders either. Be well. Do […]The post Don’t Be Like Eeyore appeared first on GROW GREAT.

Lisa texted me the following anonymous quote: No matter what knocks you down in life, get back up and keep going. Never give up. Great blessings are a result of great perservance.
