Who would want to be one? Your willingness to make yourself vulnerable in the honesty of this blog makes for refreshing reading. Not many leaders would admit to the stuff like this – yet we all face it!

That always helps me when I misspeak. And I agree with everyone else’s comments too. Thank you Paul.

It makes us vulnerable. Sometimes it takes a lot to admit to ourselves and even more to admit to someone else. But when we face the one we wronged or affected…that shows and builds character. We all screw up, it’s what we do next that matters…

Good leaders sometimes fall short, recognize they’re falling short, and learn from those experiences.

Thanks for sharing them with us, that we might learn too.
