Only Real Leaders (or NFL players) Cry
Big day for ESPN yesterday and this AM…
Peyton Manning leaves the Colts and tears up at the press conference. Adrian Foster, an undrafted free agent two years ago, signs a 5 year $40mm contract with the Texans and cries as he thanks his Mom for the sacrifices she made so the family would be OK.
Grown men crying on TV? Go figure. Actually, just real people showing real emotion. Nothing wrong with that.
When is the last time you showed any emotion at work or are you too busy being “professional?” Be yourself, authenticity is what followers really admire.
"Your energetic speaking style and well-polished presentation captured the attention of the entire audience of nearly 300 Coast Guard personnel...Your familiarity with the Coast Guard and our missions was evident, as you incorporated service history and factual information in your presentation... Your sincere, heartfelt presentation certainly contributed to the overall readiness of this command. Thanks again!"
