“Generosity isn’t sacrificing yourself—it’s helping others without harming yourself.”
Success doesn’t lay in self-sacrifice, it’s found in caring for others while taking care of yourself: your customers can tell.
“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”
As safety evolves within our organizations, many leaders still question how safety fits within the construct so that it is a viable, sustainable and productive part of the organization.
“Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.”
When a problem occurs, leaders tend to rush to solve the problem. What may seem like a time-saving, position-affirming tactic many times leads to other issues.

It’s better to recognize what’s going well, why, and engage to continually improve: nothing’s ignored and success is shared.
“A habit must be established before it can be improved!”
The stumbles along the way create opportunities. Eventually, a formula, or habit, that works for the leader emerges.
“The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The leader adjusts the sails.”
Mistakes will be made, undue risks taken; however, guiding a better organization is the role of safety.
