“Outstanding leaders go out of their way to boost the self-esteem of their personnel. If people believe in themselves, it’s amazing what they can accomplish.”

“Great leaders genuinely care for and love the people they lead more than they love leading itself. Leadership without love degenerates into self-serving manipulation.”

Rick Warren & the Ladies’ Home Journal……..?!?!?!?!?

(Hon, if my posts will rattle you, understand, I am on your side. Or, watch Deadpool, then you will get my style.)
Otherwise, why am I the Leader of the World? Because I am Jesus, or God. I prefer to be called Jesus.

I’m not easily rattled.
But I have a definite preference for dealing with the real person; and not just a style they’ve borrowed and are trying on for size!
