He took care of his client with patience and respect even though it meant that he had to do extra work to accommodate her.

It seems like yesterday. We embarked on a journey with a vision, no… a calling, to make a difference in the lives of others. Twenty-two years later, we are still on that road.

Trust is built through experience. It is not gained through lectures, promises or good intentions. Recently, I observed a team that added to their infrastructure of trust. It began with a crisis and ended with excellence.

Struggles. We have all experienced them. You may be in the middle of one right now. It is assured that problems and obstacles will be a part of our life. It is not a question of IF we will encounter hard things. The question is HOW we will respond to the difficulties that we face.

Have you ever met someone who possesses the ability to speak wisdom? I have a friend who coaches and trains leaders for NASA that is just such a person. His name is Dr. Mat Park.

At a recent event, I met three gentlemen, all in their eighties. I like to engage this generation to learn and gain insight whenever I get the chance. As we talked, they told me that each had been married to their wives for well over 50 years.

The restaurant was busy at lunch time and was understaffed. She worked hard and kept smiling, thanking customers for their patience.

Leaders come in all shapes and sizes. It doesn’t take long to identify the ones who are pursuing their own selfish agendas and those who truly care about others. Brian Cook is a leader who cares. He doesn’t just say he cares, he shows it.

Let’s get real. We tend to use the excuse “I’m so busy” or “I just don’t have the time” when thinking about all of the demands on our lives. However, I believe that we choose to invest in the things that are the most important to us.

Darrel is living a legacy of leading by putting others first. It is a great reminder for all of us that true leadership begins with service. Choose to lead by giving to those around you and you will make a difference.

“Don’t mistake brilliance for direction and purpose.” The leader who said this to me is one of the most brilliant people I have ever met. His name is Kevin Kuck and he is changing his direction and purpose.

Usually, as a person climbs the ladder of success they become less humble. Usually, but not always. Sunny Kaila grew up on a farm in rural India. He came to the US as a teenager who was determined to work hard and take care of others. His journey took him through tough times yet he persevered.

How are you? With all of the transition and lack of clarity surrounding us, it is no wonder that I get a wide range of answers when I ask this question.

During part 2 of our in-depth conversation, Dr. Nick shares his expertise on COVID-19, vaccines, timelines, and wearing masks among other things. He even points out one social benefit to mask-wearing that I personally found helpful and encouraging.

Meet Dr. Nick Gillespie. He is a medical doctor who has been leading for a long time. He has studied with some of the brightest minds in the world and he is incredibly brilliant.

I wonder how many things we are missing because we do not stop and listen to those around us? In this age of fear and fighting and name calling and lack of trust for those who are not “on our team”, I wonder if we can hear anything at all.
