Leadership School

     This week I was sent to learn more about "leadership" at a school sponsored by the company. I learned a lot of stuff and was reminded of quite a few things I had forgotten or got to busy to think about.
  I also learned that the president of our company knows my name-not sure if this pleases or alarms me but I have nothing but respect for the man. He believes in the people working for him.  Good to know.
The second thing that really stuck with me is the concept that "leaders" are taught and not born. Really? have you seen my family? Of my parents' nine grandkids-not one is a follower. They are all strong individual people with their own minds and ways of doing things-even the very smallest has made his big bro stand up and recognize. Maybe genetic testing is in order.
