  5. Leading Change No longer about telling people what to do Collaboration, transparency, sharing, empowerment Excellent customer service Employees can be our best ambassadors, if they are informed and empowered Need to ensure we have ... a sound structure ... the right people with right skills in right places at the right time Coming together is a beginning.Keeping together is progress.Working together is success. - Henry Ford

  6. Something to Think About People will always work to their highest level of perceived value You're never a failure until you start blaming others Silence is acceptance Anything you resist will persist When you do what's hard - life gets easier Vision without action is a dream; Action without vision is a nightmare Anger is your greatest tool for change Change is inevitable. We must continue to look at what is coming and build our organization to what is needed.

  7. We Need You to Become Leaders We have a strong team Talented, skilled people who can get the job done Need to focus on setting our priorities Empowering our teams to get the job done I know what great teams can do. And that is what I expect from you this year.

  8. Skills of Great Leaders Keep your vision and values in front. Create an environment that is safe for others to disagree with you. Their opinions/ideas may be better than yours. Cultivate a climate of truth tellers and rely on them. If you lie you die. Treat others the way you wish to be treated. They are not your minions. Honour your intuition. Delegate ... do not desert. A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves. - Lao Tzu
