“You could sense that pride, hope, all those things. And so we said, ‘All right, we're going to do it.’ So, we switched gears and went after the hotel and that was 100% driven by the community’s input.” ~ @jbrianmurray @Shift_Capital Click to read more! lty.site/BrianMurray

As a teacher, Danna Thomas realized that educators who support school children need a support system of their own. She created @HappyTeacherHTR, an international movement with the mission to support the mental health and wellness of teachers everywhere. lty.site/DannaThomas

Surrounding yourself with "likeminded people" is part of the problem. Surround yourself with people who aren't like you so that you can constantly gain new and diverse perspectives.

If you see someone falling behind, WALK with them. If you see someone being ignored, INCLUDE them. If you see someone is down, LIFT them up. Always remind people of their WORTH.

Worrying about how hard something is creates a negative energy that slows progress. Focusing on how capable we are creates an inclusive and exciting vision that others will be excited to follow your lead on. Our attitude dictates results - so believe in yourself! @quentinvennie

Our role as leaders is not to claim ownership of those ideas, but rather to help bring them to life in an INCLUSIVE way where everyone that the idea touches has the same sense of pride of ownership and authorship in what is being created. #LeadershipDevelopment #Entrepreneurship
