When you write things down, you commit to doing them. If you simply tell me what you want to do, there is really no commitment to getting it done.

The worst type of employee you can have is one who has mentally quit and is still physically coming to work every day.

Don't stifle your career by limiting you knowledge.

Leadership can't be claimed like luggage at the airport. Leadership can't be inherited, even though you may inherit a leadership position. And leadership can't be given as a gift - even if you've been blessed with an abundance of leadership skills to share with someone else. Leadership must be earned by mastering a defined set of skills and by working with others to achieve common goals.

Your team has entrusted a portion of their life to you, and it's your job to help them grow, personally and professionally.

Enthusiasm is something you can't fake, and it has a tremendous effect on everyone around you.

For you to be successful and provide your employees with the necessary tools for success, you and your boss must work together - no matter what.
