Bad and negative leaders are so common, are so much... Leadership for young people obsesed with success, usually works better if you are a noisy, popular but not necesarily a positive leader. Takes time to learn... and more time to inspire!! More important than be a leader is to be a positive leader.

I mean, Kirk has built a bridge for goodness sakes. And while someday I might build a bridge too, I haven’t accomplished such feats yet. Which isn’t to say that what I have done isn’t amazing, but that I still have more work to do. That makes me excited. Because being a little like Kirk Watson is something to look forward to.

You know in your heart and mind when you are meant to take the next step--there are no forumlas. I resonate with your message because I became a manager for the first time at the age of 19. Eight people reported to me--all much older than me. Becoming a leader evolved from that experience. That was in 1969. Now I write. My new book, coming out in a few weeks, is about leadership from the perspective of 21st Century Employees. Let me know if you'd like to be added to the mailing list to receive and announcement of its availability. Marilyn Haight BigBadBossdotcom WordedWritedotcom Hi, Rebecca,

Now I write. My new book, coming out in a few weeks, is about leadership from the perspective of 21st Century Employees. Let me know if you’d like to be added to the mailing list to receive and announcement of its availability.

I'm glad my douchery could be a catalyst for that kind of a productive post. It has previously only been a catalyst for being kneed in the balls. Sorry to hear you are sick. Get better and don't try to do too much in the meantime. You can be sick once in a while. You are allowed. I think that is a great answer.
