I get out of bed every morning driven by a personal why.
To lead powerful people and manage excellent products by becoming brilliant in the basics.I learn, teach and mentor, so others may survive and thrive. This means I frequently think about leadership, mission, team, incentives, and customers.
I believe in setting the example, accomplishing worthy missions and taking care of our people.
I speak on my own behalf—never my employers. If that ever changes I will explicitly say so IN the communication itself.
