Passionate about leadership development to help others realize their full potential and on a journey to learn and grow more every day
This week we continue our BRAG+1 Leadership Series starting on the fourth quality of leadership close with and destroy the enemy.
Leaders must generate results. Period.
In this article, we look at the importance of establishing clear goals for our people to accomplish with the help of 1800s theorist Antoine Jomini and the 1991 Desert Storm campaign.

This week’s article is near and dear to my heart: Don’t shoot the messenger.
While I’ve mostly heard it in jest, this concept is so important for us to receive bad news with grace and not rip the messenger’s head off.
This week we look at Genghis Khan and his experience with messengers… and how to do better.

When in charge, our emotions must be like a great wall made of stone or brick,
It’s so easy to react poorly to bad news. But we need leaders like you who can calmly react to crises with rational response.
This week, we look at Civil War General Stonewall Jackson and his inability to keep emotions in check – and how we can do better!

How often do we carry baggage from one meeting to the next?
It’s hard to leave problems behind, but so important to be resilient in one area of our lives so it doesn’t affect others.
This week we look at NCAA Coach Bobby Knight and his inability to leave it on the court and how we can do better.

This week we tackle the storms of life — they’re going to come so it’s best to be prepared.
Muhammad Ali knew this well in his fight with George Foreman in the Rumble in the Jungle. We look at this boxing war and find lessons in the Rope-a-Dope.
Be great today!
