Good “Sunday” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters, Connections, Friends, & Patriots!”  Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — 10 November 2024!

 

Today’s Message is: “Standing Day!”   Why Not?

 

“Leadership isn’t about one person’s success, or stepping forward into the limelight.  Leadership is about standing with your people.  It’s about building and empowering others to work together toward a shared vision.  Standing back as a leader allows others to take ownership of their success, builds trust, and allows people to feel they’re the priority!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
