  • Foundations for Life
    • Self Leadership forms the Foundation for everything we do in our lives. If our individual self leadership foundation is solid, everything we build on top of that foundation: career, family, friendships, recreational activities and everything meaningful that we try to do will stand firm and withstand the difficulties life throws at us. If we want those closest to us to have a solid Foundation for Life, we need to be willing and able to model what that looks like.
  • Taking the Lead
    • Leadership is influence. Nothing more. Nothing less. We all have the capacity for tremendous influence in every single one of our relationships - whether we realize it or not. We need to be the best steward of every opportunity for influence (leadership) in every relationship we have.
  • Thriving Teams
    • The whole is GREATER-THAN the sum of its parts. Successful Team Building requires us to BOTH Unleash the Masterpiece in each team member AND Unleash the GREATER-THAN of the whole team, regardless of our particular role or position within the team.
  • Transformational Rhythms
    • How can every single one of us still experience genuine purpose, meaning, love, hope, peace and joy in our lives, in the midst of all of the negative experiences we have endured in the past, are currently experiencing in the present and will experience in the future?
