The point at which things happen is a decision. In stead of focusing on yourself, focus on how you can help someone else.
To be wealthy, powerful or famous does mot matter to me. Starting a social good ripple that will turn to an ocean wave matters to me.
The leader turns the pyramid onto its head in order to serve others.
One of the most significant barriers to progress is the lack of effective leadership.
A Serving Leader who creates a powerful churn of productivity needs a team that can put itself at the service of others.
To serve the many, you first serve the few.
Getting your ego out of the way has an even deeper organizational impact.
The key is selecting the right people to join the team, those with the right skills and values, those who embrace our purpose.
The more you teach your people to not need you, the greater your value.
Expect little, and we live up to the expectation. Expect a lot, and we stretch and grow to meet the expectation.
When a leader keeps personal ego in check it builds the confidence and self-esteem of others.
Self-esteem is important because it sets up a powerful cycle of personal growth and willingness to take risks.
If you want to do something that really changes someone’s life, the best thing you can do is make the person you’re trying to help a participant in the process.
You get greatness out of people by expecting it.
