Get 1% Better every day
If you're anything like me, then the chances are that you've had your fair share of struggles as a leader. These obstacles can be frustrating but in reality, aren't so much an issue to overcome rather than the everyday bumps in our careers and personal lives; this is what I write about on my blog.

How Jesus Builds A Team
A team is capable of accomplishing things that no individual, no matter how multi-talented, could do alone. To function well: A team must be committed to a common vision and purpose, and it must be willing to work in unity for the improvement of the whole rather than...
It Doesn’t Have to be Perfect…
Consider this statement: It doesn’t have to be perfect for God to bless it. As I read Scripture, I can’t find any instance where conditions were perfect before God blessed it. Â Abraham didn’t have all the answers when asked to sacrifice his son...
