Give it Away!
One of the principles that I have learned as I have gained experience and wisdom is that the answer is often hidden or the opposite of logic.

What is Leading By Serving?
We are all leaders. We lead families, friends, workmates, and we lead by example. Leadership is not about position. A leader seizes the opportunity to make a difference.

I believe that… Leadership is for Everyone!
