There are a number of Mr. Flaming Cavaliers that are torching talent. I believe they are doing this out of fear, resistance to change, and that they do not understand the principles of good leadership. They are under the philosophy of beating the horse to get it to run. I have been resisting, challenging, teaching, and trying to extinguish the torch of Mr. Flaming Cavalier for the last four months. I lost the battle last week. However; I did not lose my integrity, energy, positive attitude, or my style of leadership to conform to the ways that I know our wrong. I will take this opportunity to open another door and continue to promote the style of leadership that you are constantly opening our eyes to. Sue,

Thanks for the reminder of how easy it can be to create high performance teams that achieve incredible results. Now I will heed your call to action by stepping away from my computer to find people doing something right and give them some recognition.

Bobby Knight tells us that "the key is not having the will to win it's whether or not you have the will to prepare". Thus the questions for all of us are: Do you have the will to properly prepare your leaders? Do your leaders have the will to properly prepare their teams? What are you doing TODAY to prepare your leaders for tomorrow? Which group are you in? the 80% waiting ....or the 20% who are taking action today?

I love the way you paint a word picture by creating garden analogies. It makes me see things a little clearer, possibilites emerge, where I did not see them before.

Just think, you are physically there, but mentally elsewhere??? Well, you really can't do anything about elsewhere while you are here, wheras you can loose a lot of good customers by being "checked out" while you are here. Sue is right on: Focus on the people here now, worry about elsewhere later :-) Experience the chills of engagement, that is my vote, every time.
