Today’s Message is: “Better Than Day!” Why Not?
“Great leaders bring out the best in those they lead. They will make others better than they are because of their leadership and presence. In the end, leaders make sure the impact they made on others lasts long after they are gone. They’re not afraid to surround themselves with people better than them. Are you an exceptional leader that is committed to making others better than they are or better than you? That’s Leadership!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
