Jerry: Thank you for your comment. Yes, it’s an awesome book. I believe you’ll greatly enjoy it! (Though, one suggestion might be to move it from your wish list to your “buy it now” list. It seems to be more effective that way)

I’ve been reading a lot about this new book, The Character Based Leader. Really interesting stuff. I’ll have to add it to my wishlist.

My apologies for being offline yesterday. Thank you for the wonderful comments.

@Denise, thank you very much.

@Joseph, thank you for the kind words and your comment. Bob’s comment and Dondi’s quote. We tend to direct people or force them because we’re lazy. We don’t want to expend the energy to treat people with respect but then they aren’t energized in their contribution and before you know it, no one, including the leader, wants to come to work. The solution always begins with someone deciding to “give” respect before they get it. Thank you!

@Lene, thank you for your comment too. At the core of respect is the idea that I can learn something from anyone. Life for me is most fun when I’m learning from others as I watch them do their thing. Thanks for being active in this conversation!

@Bob, thanks so much for the discussion and for your wisdom. I’m grateful!

Mike…
