Short reminders from the Be1Leader blog.
“Your staff is not motivated by how much you know, but by how much you know, they know.”
“Why would we ask our employees to perform a task that we ourselves are not willing to do?”
“If control and power is what you cherish, you will be no good to those under it.”
“Don’t wait until your team crosses the finish line to cheer for them.”
