Let’s “Remember Everyone Deployed” today and every day until they return home safely once again!
Good “R.E.D. Friday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the end of another week from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 22 July 2022!
Today’s Message is: “Raise Day!” Why Not?
“Leaders raise their performance bar by working on their listening skills, reducing distractions, and learning to stay relevant. These same leaders help others raise their bar by challenging them to move beyond their limits and beliefs. When leaders raise the bar for themselves and others they develop a culture of continuous growth, learning, and accountability at every level of leadership! Leaders that set high standards and expectations are constantly raising the bar. Are you ready to challenge yourself, take risks, let go of your fears, and raise your bar high?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
