We’re Glad You’re Here

“…it’s easy to be an arsonist. It’s much harder to be an architect.”

-Dawn Staley, Uncommon Favor

Arsonist or architect?

When it comes to your organization and your people, give yourself a quick rating. Are you more focused on building things up, or burning them down?

Why does it matter?

Dawn Staley’s new book, Uncommon Favor, recently reminded me of the magic that can happen in a culture focused on building leaders and teams, by encouraging people to be their best, most authentic selves.

The book emphasizes the lessons Staley learned as an elite level basketball player, coach, and leader. What held my attention throughout the pages was her candor. She shares her struggles along the path to success, including the frustrations vented inappropriately, the uncomfortable experiences that led to growth, and the doubts that sometimes kept her awake at night.

Derail your own train? Well, who hasn’t been there before? (with thanks to Sheryl Crow)
