Отрывок из книги
It was a warm sunny day in southern California on the Saturday before Easter. I was standing in front of a group of people who came to serve at a community event that was an Easter egg hunt. We promoted the event on Facebook. We put up a huge billboard that promoted this free event for our community. We promoted ponies, carnival games, free Easter eggs hunts and lots of candy. I did not know how many people would come to the event. We had a volunteer team of over 50 people. So, how was I going to lead these people to be prepared for this event? I bought 5000 Easter eggs. Over 500 hot dogs to give out for free. It was an environment where I had to lead. On this day we had a challenge with the ponies. At the last minute they cancelled. I frantically called around to find another person with ponies or even a petting zoo hours before the start of the event. One of the volunteers started calling around. They found a petting zoo who came at the last minute. The people who came to volunteer could see some worry on my face. But I needed to make sure I lead and communicated in the mist of this chaos.
I had one person come and ask if I was okay. It was that moment I realized I needed to pay attention to how I was leading. I needed to implement my Timeless Leadership principles. It was time to rise to the occasion and keep the teams TRUST, I needed every volunteer to feel their IMPORTANCE. They needed to be MOTIVATED and EQUIPPED for this day. I needed to smile and LAUGH at the many challenges and decisions that we did not plan for. I needed to be an EXAMPLE and put people in their STRENGTHS during the event. I needed to be a SUPPORT to everyone that I was leading that day. Well, I am glad to say we survived this first event. We had over 800 people show up that day. It was a success, but I was reminded of the principles and the value they bring to my leadership. So, in this book we will discuss these principles. I am excited to go on this journey and I hope you come out with a foundation to develop these 8 Timeless Leadership Principles.

Trust is something that's developed, it's not something you demand, it is something you earn. I want to make sure that you understand that trust is something you earn.
