The Personal Strength of Initiative - We Head for the Hills

Building Personal Strength

Before my wife and I moved to the Texas Hill Country, we lived in Vero Beach, Florida, a small, quiet Atlantic-side barrier island community far from the big city. I called it “Paradise.” It was awfully easy to “be in the moment” there. Until 2004, that is, when we suffered a direct hit from Category 2 Hurricane Frances. Then, a couple weeks later, another direct hit by Category 3 Hurricane Jeanne.

No Ego: How Leaders Can Cut the Cost of Drama, End Entitlement and Drive Big Results

Speaker: Cy Wakeman, M.S., CSP, President, Reality-Based Leadership

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees.

I recently asked members of the GTY Project Group on LinkedIn to answer this question: “What’s the best bit of advice, coaching or counsel you’ve ever gotten from a mentor, colleague, family member
