Now that is a naturally talented person.<BR/>Just an all around pleasant person is all I ask for. Someone that has lots to teach as I have lots to learn.the golden horsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01997072300287533624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-1165042181501612342006-12-01T22:49:00.000-08:002006-12-01T22:49:00.000-08:00Found this on an inspirational type website and th...Found this on an inspirational type website and thought it matched what you've written:<BR/><BR/>Never let 'perfect' get in the way of 'better'. Fear of not being 'good enough' holds many back from being the best they can. Comparison with others curtails their possible activities and actions... Better may not be best; but it's the best for the moment. And the best for the moment always brings out the best in you and I. Best we start now.....!!! <BR/><BR/>Andrea<BR/>Radio PatriotAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-1165025670404821622006-12-01T18:14:00.000-08:002006-12-01T18:14:00.000-08:00"The supreme quality for leadership is unquestiona..."The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity.

Some were leading as they had learned from Captains who belittled them when they were FO's and now that its their turn they were going to do it to you. <BR/><BR/>The good ones which I was fortunate to experience on most days fulfilled the examples you gave. They had a craving for seeing things done the right way not their way. Opinions gave way to fact and sop's. Questions were always encouraged and they would find out if they didn't know.<BR/><BR/>They worked as your co-worker not as your superior. They lead by example not by a dictatorship.<BR/><BR/>You think of movies such as Braveheart and you try and analyze how one man could get a country to fight together. Especially back when they couldn't put up a blog and email new members :)<BR/><BR/>Basically its undying devotion and integrity to the cause and the ability to make it happen even if that takes getting your hands dirty.<BR/><BR/>Just my 2 cents worth, great post again and Golden Horse I like the "Lead like you know the way, and follow like you want to learn". I might have to use that someday :)<BR/><BR/>Cheers !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-1165019265434614012006-12-01T16:27:00.000-08:002006-12-01T16:27:00.000-08:00GBGreat column there GB.I always thought that if y...GB<BR/>Great column there GB.<BR/>I always thought that if you had an employee that if given any choice in the world, would come back and work for you, pretty much says it all. <BR/>Lead like you know the way and follow like you want to learn.<BR/>I personally had little respect for a leader that used fear to manage.
