@shelly_stitt Shelly this is an excellent point and one that I have seen many times in the workplace. A women stands her ground while leading with assertion and is consider over bearing and controlling. But when it’s a man he is a great leader. It’s something we all need to fix #spch451
The myth of having it all. Life is about enjoying your 10 out of 10 days because you have experienced 2 out of 10 days. We just need to slow down and value the little things #spch451
I especially liked the Viktor Tikhinov example of addressing his coaches of a behavior he knew was detrimental to the success of the team. It can be difficult to challenge authority but in this case he gained respect of his coaches and teammates #SPCH451
Sandberg’s metaphor of a jungle gym instead of a ladder for upwards mobility in leadership provided a glimpse of the creativity it takes to excel in our careers. The scramble of a jungle gym allows us to move even if it’s not directly upwards. #SPCH451

Jake Olson did 17 bench press reps at 225 pounds this morning at USC’s Pro Day. He did it as a fundraising campaign to help find a cure for retinoblastoma, the cancer that caused his blindness. To support this very worthy cause, please go to https://t.co/okR5buxp9N
Sitting at the table is knowing what you stand for and being willing to express that with confidence. It’s also being respectful of the other people at the table and the varying perspectives. #SPCH451
A justifiable lie I have heard is when a leader tells a new hire that they are doing good work to build confidence when it is actually mediocre. A unjustifiable lie I have heard regarded changing numbers to make a company look more successful. #SPCH451
I think a requirement for running out country should be reading Extreme Ownership. Using the principles of detachment and planning are two keys to handling uncertainty #SPCH451
