What an inspirational post! I especially like the quote from John Quincy Adams...
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” – John Quincy Adams. The key word is "actions." I learned about true leadership from a former boss who gave me a great opportunity, believed in me and showed me by his example how to mentor and inspire my own staff. This is a nice reminder to us all to take this slow week before the end of the year to reach out to those who have believed in us and to those we believe in. Thanks!
