Jane, great post and reminder. The highest calling of a leader isn't to achieve organizational objectives. The highest calling is to achieve or exceed those goals and develop people. The key to the highest calling of leadership is that focus on the other person, helping them reach their goals and make a positive difference. Everytime we include someone else in our objectives for that other person's reasons, we magnify our cause and lift our spirits and objectives.  Thanks again for these 4 steps along the way to building character-based leaders. Mike...
