Vision. I like to surround myself with men and women who have a clear vision for the future and how they fit into that vision.

I absolutely love this post, Ron! In a day where so many people need so much affirmation and constant encouragement to do even the smallest tasks, there was a great reminder. I am all for encouraging the front line staff and those doing the "menial" tasks. But leaders need to be able to look inward for strength. Even greater is when a leader begins to look upward to receive all of his strength, encouragement and affirmation. It's not about us... it's about those we serve! Thanks for the incredible post, Ron.
