Directions are instructions given to explain how. Direction is a vision offered to explain why.

It doesn't matter how much we know, it matters how clearly others can understand what we know.

We crave explanations for most everything, but innovation and progress happen when we allow ourselves to embrace uncertainty.

We must be clear about where we’re going if we want anyone to help us get there.

We call them leaders because they go first, because they take the risk before anybody else does, because they will choose to sacrifice so their people will be safe and protected.

Managers watch over our numbers, our time and our results. Leaders watch over us.

More often than not when we do not like our work, it's not necessarily because of the work itself. But more often because of the people we work with and more importantly because of the lack of leadership. It is amazing how inspired and motivated we can be when we like the people and when we feel like we show up to work because our leaders care about our wellbeing. It is kind of incredible actually.
