Careful reading is the new listening. Carefully crafted messages is the new empathy. Asynchronous written communication requires different communication skills. #GLS25

Trust is defined by the conversation i can have with you. Trusting you means that i can talk freely with you. How do we become trusted by those around us? #GLS25

What was implicit in our IRL communication We need to make explicit in our online communication They can't read our body language through our text message. #GLS25

I think what is sometimes missing from our online communication is giving the other person the benefit of the doubt. Love them and assume the best from them in their communication to you. #GLS25

A positive energy output by a leader is imperative because the reality is that we live in a difficult world. True Positive energy doesn't deny reality but builds on it. #GLS25

There is no great victory without great adversity. Love the adversity because it produces greatness. #GLS25

Humiliation and defeat drives us. We don't grow from success We grow from losing and then deciding to put in the effort to become better. Set yourself up to fail Stretch and push your boundaries until you fail Then decide to be better. #GLS25

In a world that is highly connected and globalised, we need bridge builders. But not just building connections, we need people who know how to integrate. How do we live and grow together as an integrated community. #GLS25

This one strikes deep. #GLS25

When it's all said and done i would like it to be said of me like it was said of Apollos "...When he arrived, he greatly helped those who through grace had believed." #GLS25

Self doubt is essential for good leadership. It's not the enemy of leadership, it's essential. The person in the Bible who exhibited the most self doubt was Moses. He was also the greatest leader. I have a hard time trusting someone who doesn't question themself. #GLS25

That shame is not mine to carry #GLS25

Dealing with hard times: This season needs a new strategy. It's time to reinvent myself. #GLS25

The presence of our smart phone on our desk can dramatically reduce our focus and effectiveness. #GLS25

Find what time of the day and what circumstances lead to your peak cognitive focused time. Then plan your highest importance work for that period. Stop trying to be at peak performance for the entire day. #GLS25

Take a break. Idle time is not wasted time. Plan for and leverage having idle time in your day. #GLS25

After you are gone people will describe your life in one sentence. What if you decided to choose those words instead of letting others pick them. You pick what your life is about and then live into it. #GLS25

Permission to dream How do I give my kids permission To dream(bigger than me) To challenge authority (even me) To build(beyond the sandbox i built for them) They can be more than i am They shouldn't be limited by what they see in me I want to inspire and give permission #GLS25

"Positivity has a better ROI than negatively" Politics may be the exception. #GLS25

Leaders who can't be questioned end up doing questionable things. #GLS25
