Create New Futures

“Managers are appointed but leaders are elected. You choose the person you want to follow. You’re told who your manager is but in terms of the people you want to emulate and admire, that’s all choice.”

“Relationships are the most important part of life and work.”

“I tell everybody on the team, I expect you to fail at times. In fact, if you’re not failing once in a while, you’re not pushing yourself far enough.”

“Gratitude connects people very quickly, easily and authentically.”

“The future pulls us out of the past, and pulls toward the dream, and what’s possible.”

“You have to have vision. You have to be able to keep teams grounded towards where you’re going and what the longer-term path is because it can be really hard, especially when you’re innovating inside a large organization.”

“True leadership means you’re in the game. People don’t see you as someone that won’t do the same thing that they do.”

“Most business leaders are undervaluing the intangibles of their business.”

“Really going into purpose work, that takes courage. Leadership is courageous. Leadership – real leadership, authentic, purpose-focused leadership – is not for wimps. It takes courage. You will have to stand up. You will have to face the dragon.”

“Having an ecosystem of people who actually can talk to you, help you, and support you may be the most important thing, not only for your professional and personal success, but for your life.”

"If you are not willing and able to lead wholeheartedly, get the hell out of the way so that somebody who is can."

“If you can, and I think you probably can, see yourself as part of something bigger than yourself.”

“The first trend is that you have to actively seek out talent. Those days of positioning yourself as, ‘Oh, people would be so lucky if they got to work here’ are long gone. And so, you have to actively promote yourself as a leader and your brand as well as the employer brand and you have to actively attract people to your organization.”
