#Innovation is not just for Silicon Valley. The keys to innovation are: get close enough to the work to feel the moral imperative; have a management system that supports, not thwarts, innovation; and maintain a disciplined disregard for conventional wisdom. #LeadTrue

“Above all, success in #business requires 2 things: a winning competitive strategy & superb organizational executions. Distrust is the enemy of both... High trust won’t necessarily rescue a poor strategy, but low trust will almost always derail a good one.” - @StephenRCovey #qotd

No one’s ego is more important than consistently living the values of your organization. Embed those values into every orientation, communication, evaluation, and goal, and then have the discipline to build and use a system that supports those that live the values. #LeadTrue

An important, but often overlooked, impediment to reaching business goals is staff fear: of their boss, change, making the “wrong” decision, & fear for their jobs. But fear IS preventable: bit.ly/2DdSo8x #leadership

Hope is a weak strategy for improvement. Staff will be inspired by big, bold goals aimed at the well-being of others. What are your big, bold goals for 2019 and beyond? #leadership #LeadTrue

There is a two-way responsibility when it comes to practicing and honoring your values. Staff from the front lines and senior executives can and should be participants; as a leader, it's crucial to consistently express your values through actions and words. #leadership #LeadTrue
