Is Your Heart In It?
I give a seminar on a regular basis called “The Road To Mastery”. This seminar is designed to scratch the surface and open our methodology for helping develop peak performers.

Reproducing Leaders
Over the years I’ve learned a large part of being a leader requires the reproduction of other leaders. Which team do you think can accomplish more? Team A is comprised of a genius leader with several helper-followers. Team B is made up of an accomplished leader who is developing other leaders on the team? Which one? Team B is the correct answer.
