Are You Afraid to Ask for Help?
When was the last time you asked for help? Are you afraid to? https://vimeo.com/1000446675?share=copy The Colonel said, “Being a strong leader doesn’t mean you never ask for help. Only a bloated ego believes they never need...
How Do You Know if Your Team is Weak?
As we head into the NFL preseason (y’all know my passion for football…) and we start to analyze the various teams’ strengths and weaknesses, I think about something The Colonel said, “You’ll know your team is weak when they work against each other, for themselves...
Can You Succeed Alone?
You’ve no doubt heard the saying, “Teamwork makes the dream work.” Although a bit cliché, it is undoubtedly true. You never succeed alone. There is always someone supporting you. https://vimeo.com/986497213?share=copy Precious little in this world is achieved...

Are You Too Worried About The Destination To Focus On The Journey?
When will you know that you have really “arrived” in your leadership career? Dad constantly reminded me that leadership is not a place you get to. Leadership is a journey you live. https://vimeo.com/951207801?share=copy The last time our children were locked in a...
