TIMES OF CRISIS ARE TIMES FOR LEADERS TO RISE

Times of crisis over the centuries have provided the opportunities for individuals to show up as great leaders. Sometimes it is an Eisenhower, a Churchill or a Lincoln, other times it is a Ghandi, a Mother Teresa or a Helen Keller. David Rothkopf, a contributor to The Washington Post, wrote an article titled, Where are the Leaders?

Leaders are often 'discovered' during times of crisis. Mr. Rothkopf is disappointed with the leadership or lack thereof in the government right now. Peel the onion after Obama and you wonder, where are the leaders? Why haven't they showed up? Is it the vetting process that Congress uses? Is it the money?

What are you doing to lead in your company? And what are you doing to train more leaders?

Steve, thanks for the article reference.

Cheers, Mike
