The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!
Good “Monday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to a new week from the “Eagle’s Nest” in The Woodlands, TX! — 20 September 2021!
Today’s Message is: “Empathy Day!” Why Not?
“Having empathy as a leader will allow you to create trust. It’s important for a leader to understand the feelings and thinking of team members. It’s good to put on someone else’s shoes to really understand what is happening around you. It sharpens your perceptions and intuition for informed decision-making.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
