The thought that comes to me as I watched the powerful video below is that leadership is sometimes a one on one thing that has the potential to affect literally thousands of people, maybe even millions. Anyone can be a leader. I was deeply touched by the leadership a young man by the name of Charles Steadman demonstrated and an entire student body embraced when a young woman by the name of Savannah, who was born with Cerebral Palsy, was voted Homecoming/Inaugural Queen.

So what is teamwork? Do you know effective teamwork when you see it? Here is a fun video that I thought you might all enjoy on a lite Friday.

How many of us would admit that we are in the skin of a tiger, but our heart is that of a mouse? We talk tough, but we are afraid to follow through with action. We believe it is important at times to be direct and honest with those we lead, but we avoid conflict.

I found myself in one of those situations today where something so simple was made way more complicated than it needed to be. I had to take a dreaded trip to the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) to get my driver’s license renewed. I was relieved and even shocked to find no one else in the entire office except those who were working.
