Commitment

"Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality. It is the words that speak boldly of your intentions. And the actions which speak louder than the words.
It is making the time when there is not. Coming through time after time after time, year after year after year. Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily trumph of integrity over skepticism." ~ Abraham Lincoln

Character

"The final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands." ~ Anne Frank

Authenticity

"Authentic expression is the true voice of the leader. We speak from our character and it creates trust, synergy, and connection with everyone around us. Authentic expression is not about refining our presentation style - it's deeper than that. Some of the most authentic leaders I know stumble around a bit in their delivery, but the words come right from their hearts and experience...Expressing authentically is about straight talk that creates value. It's about sharing your real thoughts and feelings in a manner that opens up possibilities." ~ Kevin Cashman

Humility

"One of the biggest things I've learned is that I don't always have to be right." ~ Jeffrey B. Swartz

Vision

"In order to reach their goals, leaders must be passionate visionaries." ~ Judy Murphy

Leadership

"When the focus of leadership becomes privilege instead of service, leadership self-destructs. It will not survive such a violation of its essence." ~ Antoni Cimolino

Influence

"All of us have the power to shape our lives and influence the lives of others." ~ John C. Maxwell
