10. Attitude Is Everything
by Tania Bengtsson, Principal and Director of Marketing & Innovation at Gibson
Every good coach, successful player, and motivational speaker will tout the necessity of having the right attitude. People can choose attitude, but each choice has consequences. If you are determined to learn, NO ONE CAN STOP YOU. If you are not willing to learn, NO ONE CAN HELP YOU.
9. DILIGENCE, DISCIPLINE, AND Hard Work Aren't Enough
by Justin Maust, President & Founder of Leader Legacy
Your team needs NEW IDEAS and NEW THINKING injected into their work. You don’t know what you don’t know. Step outside of your world for a moment. Expose yourself and your team to the success, habits, and thinking of other great minds that just might be achieving at a higher level than you.
8. Change The Way You Think
by Larry Linne, entrepreneur, advisor, and author
Too often, people are restricted - not by reality, but by their history and…how they think. As a business consultant I can give people a lot of tools to become successful and do great things. It is clear to me today, the greatest thing I can give to someone is to help them change the way they think!
7. Digital Detox And THe Voice Of God
by Jerry Scott
There is no doubt that the business has to win in order to survive and thrive. But so does the heart, mind, and spirit of our teammates. Our challenge as leaders is to figure out how to engineer an improving margin and quality of life through technology, innovation, and intelligence.
6. Insights From A Professional "Cat Herder"
by Silas Jessup, Executive Sales Leader at HealthMarkets Insurance Agency
I encourage you to be vigilant about understanding the perceptions of those around you. By properly managing these perceptions, you can establish value as an influencer. Influencers have the unique opportunity to change the trajectory of the lives of those around them.
5. Nothing Else But Now
by Tim Leman, Chairman & CEO at Gibson
There is nothing else than now. There is neither yesterday, certainly, nor is there any tomorrow. How old must you be before you know that?
4. Generation Z Ascending
by Jerry Scott
The winds of change are blowing in our community. Generation Z is coming on strong.
3. Competitive Advantage: Lessons From The Little 500
by Brad Serf, Principal at Gibson
What lessons can you learn from 30 years of The Little 500? The high-risk, high-reward nature of this philanthropic event gave me many indelible life lessons about competition.
2. Are You Part Of THe Problem Or THe Solution?
by Tara Lunardi, Lt Col, USAF
We may not have the authority or power now to change much more regarding the rules of the game, but we can and should do what we can to help one another.
1. The Most Important Question
by Adam Kronk, Head of School for La Lumiere School
The risk, if we fail to ask this question, is charging ahead through life without empathy, without an acknowledgement that for the people we encounter, a set of circumstances we probably don’t fully understand informs who they are and what they think.
Thank you to all our bloggers and readers for making this another great year. I’m looking forward to 2017!
