7. Discussion
• What are some areas that you are trying to
move people from here to there?
• Was it hard for you to write down where you're
at right now with your business? Why or why
not?
• Do you agree that "everyone knows anyway"
and that the best way to handle it (if your
company is in a down swing) is to just admit
it, declare an emergency and get it moving
again?
• Were you surprised at your answer to the “E”
test?

19. Daring
Greatly
It is not the critic who counts; not the man
who points out how the strong man
stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could
have done them better. The credit belongs to
the man who is actually in the arena, whose
face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes
short again and again, because there is no
effort without error and shortcoming; but who
does actually strive to do the deeds; who
knows great enthusiasms, the great
devotions; who spends himself in a worthy
cause; who at the best knows in the end the
triumph of high achievement, and who at the
worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring
greatly, so that his place shall never be with
those cold and timid souls who neither know
victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt
Excerpt from the speech “Citizenship In A Republic”
Delivered at the Sorbonne, in Paris, France

22. Colin Powell’s 13 Rules
for Leaders
Excerpts from It Worked For Me: In Life and
Leadership.
Copyright 2012 by Colin Powell. Harpercollins.com
Leadership is about moving people from here to there. So - Where are you at in your business? Is anyone here struggling because they know results are less than the combined talent should be producing? Is there any negative thinking or blaming happening in your organization? Are people and teams not focused on what truly drives results? Is accountability truly exercised? Does the business ever feel scattered and not on a focused, upward trajectory?
