Welcome. Glad you are here!
Simply put, my new book is focused entirely on one subject – LEADERSHIP.
It is my belief that effective leadership is THE most important personal attribute necessary to succeed in today’s high-velocity economy and very chaotic world.
High-impact leadership is not a spectator sport. No one has the luxury of sitting on the sidelines of life, watching, and hoping that someone else will do the hard work to make their life better.
Mediocrity is not in demand today, and you will hear me repeat this more than once. Settling for average is not your path to happiness and success.
High-impact and decent leadership is not easy, and everyone is not ‘doing it.’ But for those who are committed to making a difference for themselves and others, authentic and effective leadership is the pathway to a very meaningful life.
I purposefully have kept this website brief and ‘to-the-point.’ Leadership can be a deep dive into a long list of important attributes and behaviors. What you will find on this site, and in my new book, is a focus on those select attributes I consider ‘common sense, but not common practice.’
While these are not behaviors difficult to understand, they are some of the ones I have found to be lacking in many young people who are working hard to succeed, but who are not achieving their desired results.
Winning attitude, teamwork, compassion, focus, and perseverance are just a few of the ‘must-have’ leadership attributes necessary for a path to personal happiness and success. These behaviors, and others, are the substance of this book.
Again, I am glad you are here!
Embrace the Chaos: Finding Light in the Darkness
-At times, the path to growth and transformation may seem daunting, obscured by uncertainty and challenges.
But we are often reminded:
"Sometimes you have to walk into the dark to find the light, you can't wait for the light to find you." - Bill McKenzie
This powerful message encapsulates the essence of my mission—to empower you to embrace adversity, seek growth, and discover your inner light amidst life's darkest moments.
Life is filled with twists and turns, obstacles and setbacks. But it's often during these moments of darkness that we find the greatest opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Rather than fear the unknown, embrace it as an invitation to step outside your comfort zone, challenge your assumptions, and explore new possibilities.
As you navigate your own journey of growth and self-discovery, let my book serve as a guiding light—a source of inspiration, empowerment, and practical wisdom to illuminate your path forward. Through compelling stories, actionable insights, and transformative strategies, we're here to support you every step of the way.
Book Outline:
I have been teaching leadership to young people for over 16 years. And all of those years I have struggled to find a book that is targeted to this demographic. There are scores of adult leadership books that are 300+ pages filled with business or sports examples or complicated models of how to be a leader.
What I love most about this book is that it is able to encapsulate wisdom from a vast amount of sources and distill it into something that is readable and digestible by our students. Frankly, I wish there were more resources like this remarkable book, given the barren wasteland of student leadership books.
