Photo Friday: Service and Sacrifice
This picture was taken on the rear patio of the old Officer’s Club at Deer Point (Now called the Bayview Restaurant) at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

The Mad Scientist
I used to work for a boss who liked to do experiments. He wasn’t a scientist and the field that he was experimenting in was management. He would actually conduct experiments with people.

Angry, Cool, Weird and Stupid
Ah, here we go again- another election cycle! I used to really enjoy politics. Political science was a favorite of mine in school.

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. They lead from where they are. In this space, I share stories and life lessons on grabbing hold of these opportunities. Making an impact. Changing the world.
I believe that… Leadership is for Everyone!
