Each week, I collect the resources related to leadership, personal growth, and professional development I shared on social media the prior week, with the accompanying quotations.
……..

Travis Bradberry:

7 Things That Make Great Bosses Unforgettable” (8-19-24)

“Unforgettable bosses are passionate about what they do. They believe in what they’re trying to accomplish, and they have fun doing it. This makes everyone else want to join the ride.”
……..

Molly McGrath:

3 keys to onboarding new team members” (8-13-24).

“A next-level onboarding process involves more than just checking off a to-do list. It conveys a warm welcome, a feeling of excitement and a display of helping the employee be successful in the job.”
……..

Ken Blanchard:

Invest time in your people” (8-30-23).

“Do you know what is important to your direct report? Do you know what they are really after and what their priorities are? If you don’t, that’s a knowledge gap you need to address.”

Frank Sonnenberg:

Believe That You Can, and You Will” 8-20-24).

“The truth is that you have the potential to accomplish great things in life, but you must be willing to work hard, make the required commitment, and endure the necessary sacrifices to achieve that end.

The more you choose to accept responsibility for your life, the more power you’ll have to determine your destiny.”

On John C. Maxwell’s new book, High Road Leadership:
Bringing People Together in a World That Divides (2024):

About the Book

“‘Everything rises and falls on leadership,’ says Maxwell. …. Leaders who practice high road leadership value all people, do the right things for the right reasons, take accountability for their actions, and place people above their own agenda.”
