THE RADICALLY CHANGING NATURE OF LEADERSHIP, PERSONAL LEADERSHIP, LEADERSHIP FOR THE FUTURE OF WORK, CREATNG YOUR OWN PERSONAL TRANSFORMATIVE LEADERSHIP PLAN |
In a world of instant gratification and constant change, it is clear to me that striving to be accountable, and being of service, is a good starting point daily. I live to work and I work to play. Work and play are conducted separately but are inextricable in my life. I’ve noticed that many winners in the business world, or at least the interesting ones, work like a CAPTAIN and play like a PIRATE! Work and play have always been a crucial and inextricable part of my life. I have installed over 10,000 roofs and logged over 10,000 wilderness miles in the saddle, packing my mules – that is a good balance for me.
I started roofing houses as Sophomore in High School and was bidding my own jobs before I graduated in 1980. My dad had some simple advice for me: “Be a little better than the next guy. Show up on time and do what you promise.” Today I know that striving to be a little better in ALL aspects of life can produce extraordinary results. A commitment to be a little better husband, a little better dad, a little better friend, and a little better boss has resulted in rather astounding results for TWM Roofing Inc. At TWM Roofing Inc. we are always looking for a little edge over the competition. Of course, I love the GRAND SLAM edges that bring immediate results, but the little business edges and simple life adventures are often the most dramatic long term. I have learned that living by this basic guide of improving myself (not being perfect, just being a little better) effects EVERYTHING – friends, family, employees and their families, vendors, customers, AND net profit. |
