Be extraordinary.
Hi fellow leaders, is month begin and I was struggling to find my truth leadership talk for the month, as I promised you.
My newsletter has a provocative tone, intentionally to make you think on your hole and the impact you have in all people you lead. That is my humble belief that I can influence and educate you for a life full of opportunities.
I was wondering, Year end, you look about everything you have achieve, next years plans besides long budget discussions. What to write about? I don’t want to write everything the same as usual end of the year speech.
The, I suddenly was impacted by the picture of Debbie Moore. Debbis is standing in London stock exchange in the middle surrounded about classic and clever man that believes they are the best.
In the middle is an English model and businesswoman who founded the Pineapple Dance Studios and its associated clothing brand. She was the first woman to float a company on the London Stock Exchange and in 1984 was an early winner of the prestigious Veuve Clicquot Business Woman of The Year Award
When I saw the Picture, a powerful women, surrounded by man that belief they are the most important or intelligent person in the room, I though, how someone can stand up with the right beliefs.
