I vividly remember when I finally made this jump, back in 2003 – it was not long after I’d been turned down for a big promotion to the executive suite. There comes a time in a more human leadership journey where something radically changes. The focus of our effort makes a major progression forward that, once accomplished, propels us to greatness. On the other hand, if this progression is NOT made, we’ll be doomed to mediocrity or outright failure.

In 2003, I walked into a situation where a previous owner hadn’t kept their word – repeatedly. It takes work to secure, it’s hard to keep, and if you lose it, you lose – BIG. And, it’s really hard to get it back. It’s that precious to the effective leader. It MUST be kept, at all costs, and with all the effort you can muster. What is it? Your word. I’ve never seen a ship sink so fast when a leader doesn’t keep their word.
