Leadership Tip of the Month: 

"We tend to think of leadership as something you do externally. The good leaders are the ones who are comfortable in their own skins. They understand what they are about -- they understand their purpose in life and their strengths. They have a level of comfort with themselves that leads to a level of comfort with others."

-- Dan Pink, Leading With A Whole New Mind
