— To follow is a bullet of wisdom on leadership. It comes from Tom’s rifle, named Shot, who has seen it all. You’ll get the drift by clicking Blog in the menu above. —
THAT GAL COULD SHOOT! Whew…ee! For years she was a star performer on stages across the United Sates and Europe. Yep, a good shot and great performer. She was the right kind of performer: She not only had great talk, she had a great walk. In the world of “put up or shut up,” she put up. Her money was where her mouth was. Ever heard “big hat, no cattle”? That was not Annie.
Okay, you big shot leaders. Save your performance for getting results, not flashing promotional banners. Nope. Let your actions speak. If you have walked well, you have earned the right to talk. But I ask that you do so with humility, and use your talk to benefit others. Perhaps you can teach, coach, mentor. If the road you traveled taught you wisdom, act like it.
