“You need to quit reading your press clippings.”  Those were the words of a former company president I worked for.  What he was attempting to communicate is even though I was experiencing a certain level of success, I had a loooonnnng way to go.  He was right.

As leaders, we never fully arrive until we make it to Heaven.  Until then, constant improvement and personal growth are always needed.  This is why you will love this week’s Top 10 list.  Each post is written to improve your skills and make you a better leader.
