MY FEETS!!! SEE MY FEETS!! Who knew someone else could see where you’ve been? What marks are you leaving? Will they be worth following? Will they actually lead anywhere? https://youtu.be/2u1fufKiKX4 Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

ARE YOU LEAKING OR LEADING? Your leadership style often leaks from your relationship style. We all tend to mimic others who influence us. We also tend to adopt ways of relating based on what “works” with others we lead and influence. This is not always good. https://youtu.be/Vz_b1GuEDyg Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

ARE YOU MYOPIC IN YOUR LEADERSHIP? Yes you probably should look up the word before you answer, if you are not already familiar with it. When you are deep, it’s hard to be agile. When you are shallow, almost anything can redirect your course. Consider the contrast as you lead and interact with your team. https://youtu.be/jBJkRqENooo Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

CAUGHT IN A MAZE? Have you ever watched a mouse in a transparent maze? Notice how they run into invisible barriers and get redirected by obstacles they can see. In the life of leaders we often find barriers, restrictions, and limitations impacting our performance without seeing clearly what is causing the delay. That’s exactly what a coach is for. It’s time for someone outside the environment to help you see what you cannot see. https://youtu.be/b63Tj6tmo3c Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

REMEMBER THERE IS A CYCLE TO LIFE ITSELF - A PROCESS. This early morning orchestra is a symbol as well as a real demonstration of the many cycles and seasons of life. What season are you in? Do you see the cycle as part of the process or merely a delay between you and your dream? Is the daily life you’re living now a detour on the way to your destiny or part of the process to prepare you for it? https://youtu.be/qqXMpABBIic Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

ASSESSMENTS - EVALUATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS Have you ever been part of a team with “players out of place” or serving in the wrong role? Knowing your teams assigned duties is essential to maintaining a high level of performance. Perhaps the only thing more important is aligning your teams natural talents and acquired skills with their assignments. Sometimes that means altering their job or job description rather than changing your team. https://youtu.be/OL9vD0sxM2s Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

SELFLESSNESS IS A RARE TREASURE Selfishness is a more common trait among humans. It is the Achilles heel of all leaders. Leaders often focus on “the bottom line” as a means to measure success and progress of productivity. The impact your life and leadership has on others must be measured by more than the profit margin or gross out put of your organization. https://youtu.be/RpVDIRZSkPQ Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

We are here. Not yet fully set up - but here. Things are changing fast. More things on the horizon. What does the “all spark”, “the god killer”, the lost ark, and King Arthur’s sword have in common? What does it have to do with your leadership ability and opportunity? https://youtu.be/qDA1x9N2vg4 Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

LEADERS MUST STAND AGAINST THE FLOW. Life events will come at you like a flood. Going along with the path of last resistance might seem simple. It requires less effort and even appears more relaxing until you realize the current of change will overwhelm you. Your values, your integrity and your purpose will all be challenged in the flow of cultural change. As a person of influence, you must find ways to resist the common flow and redirect the culture. https://youtu.be/D-8NKOHogxM Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.

WHICH LEADER IS ABOVE REPROACH? None of the above! https://youtu.be/p_cYQ77JFgg So long as humans lead, humans will fail. So long as imperfect men and women are in the spotlight, their human flaws and frailty will be exposed by the light. So long as fame and notoriety follow the accuser, fairness and justice will remain questioned and possibly delayed. Sadly, there is “money in the accusation” in too many cases. This fact taints the truth of those who need, demand and deserve justice. Our standards too have shifted. What was once thought to be normal and accepted behavior is now shunned and punishable. What was once not fit for prime time television is now on the pages of middle school library books. We must rethink. The most common comment from readers of 5 Battle Strategies of a Victorious Warrior (Amazon) is this: “I didn’t know I was an addict until I read your book!” Tell It Like It Is TV with J Loren Norris providing daily leadership lessons for faith, family and freedom.
