		<description><![CDATA[Each of us has our own truth. It is rarely the same from one person to the next. People challenge each other with their different truths. However, it is important for us as leaders to keep speaking our truth without judgment and blame. How does one do this? In the past, I have told my truth from a Self Righteous place. But that kind of dialogue creates resistance. Even if you are “right” and there is value in your truth for another, it will not be heard. It may sound odd but learning to speak more truthfully, for me, meant &#8230;  <a href="http://www.mcgheeleadership.com/blog/the-second-layer-of-truth/">read more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For 15 years I led culture change programs inside of some of the most powerful organizations in the whole world. I was amazed at how much time individuals and teams would spend “running around the flower pot” rather than telling the truth. Some of us are afraid of the truth. We do everything we can to avoid saying it. The simplicity of the truth can cut through the minutiae and bring a solution to your team and life in short order. For what reason, do some of us avoid it? We are afraid we will hurt someone’s feelings? We perceive &#8230;  <a href="http://www.mcgheeleadership.com/blog/leading-from-truth/">read more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Blog Followers: As we round the corner into another year, here&#8217;s what you can look forward to from me this coming year. I have spent the last 9 months completing many important projects in my own Life and Leadership Business. One of my focuses has been to add clarity to what I feel is a new definition for Leadership during our changing times. Therefore, I have interviewed, read and conversed with many of the world’s leading thought agents on the subject. The result is an approach to Life and Leadership challenges that will assist you in creating the most &#8230;  <a href="http://www.mcgheeleadership.com/blog/a-new-year-and-a-new-way-to-be/">read more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Projects almost never go the way I suspect that they will. They seem to take longer or have more obstacles than I can plan for. As some of you know, I have created a project called The Aconcagua Man Project. This project has required great patience from me. The preparation, planning, time, resources, obstacles, and disappointments have tempered me to my core. This 9 month leadership project is a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual kick ass journey that culminates in our summiting the highest mountain in the world outside of Asia. The Mighty Mountain of Aconcagua will require me taking &#8230;  <a href="http://www.mcgheeleadership.com/blog/the-patient-leader/">read more</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The world is stingy. This is juxtaposed by generosity. I am not talking necessarily about money. I am talking about generosity of the human spirit. The great leaders I know are generous with inspiration and enthusiasm. These men and women give it freely, because they know that “it” is free to give. Others hold back and withhold like they might run out of their own Love. The most powerful source of energy we have available to us is Love. Now, before you accuse me of going woo woo on you, just stop and consider the possibility of the statement.

		<description><![CDATA[We have gotten lazy in the name of introspection. Yes, I feel that introspection and “knowing” thyself is of incredible value in terms of life and leadership. Yet, I find that many of us are using “process” as a way to rationalize our non-action. Why? Because it’s easier for me to sit on my duff in the name of process rather than to take an action that actually accomplishes something. Being in One’s process is overrated. After awhile it’s like a stinky shoe. The smell won’t go away, unless I do something to make it smell better.

		<description><![CDATA[The mastery of precision inspires me. It’s a rarity in a world of get quick fixes. If you want to be reminded of the excellence in leadership, I recommend an evening out to your local symphony orchestra. The focus required to bring together a band of wind, percussion, horns etc….is a pristine example of sharpness. The results are magical and far reaching. People are touched by that kind of commitment. Why? Because for me sitting there, it seems effortless and as the Orchestra leader waves his wand with such alacrity, the entire team of musicians responds with ease.

		<description><![CDATA[If I don’t love what I am doing, I ought not to do it at all. Why? Because if I am doing something because I think I “have” to, my performance is weak. I know this to be true for me, as there have been times in my life where I rationalized my half enthusiastic participation in the name of appeasement. Today, and in my life; I refuse to allow that way of being to exist. Yes, I realize that many of us reading this message feel we have no choice in what we are doing.

You can’t be the best at anything unless you can get your head around it first. So, what does Deuce Lutui have to do with you and me? Everything! His demonstration of leadership is inspiring people all over the globe. One day Mr. Lutui had a revelation. His epiphany starts in the psychology of who he is to himself.

		<description><![CDATA[Your future can only be bright if you can see it as illumined.  As you look into the negative influences of the past, the future becomes cynical as well. This may sound obvious and yet many of us still get stuck. How do I know? I am a “listener” of language. There are generally two kinds of communication. One is a communication of what went wrong that carries a sense of being victimized from the things that didn’t work. The other is a conversation of possibility. I am not here to judge or make either position wrong. In a way, &#8230;  <a href="http://www.mcgheeleadership.com/blog/the-future-of-leadership/">read more</a>]]></description>
