Welcome to our new blog...LEAD ON!

"EVERYTHING RISES AND FALLS ON LEADERSHIP"

"THE HIGHEST FORM OF LEADERSHIP IS SELF LEADERSHIP" 
 ~ John C. Maxwell ~

I am excited to share my leadership development and personal growth journey with you! Do you have the passion to become the person and leader God created you to be? I do! Many years ago I heard someone say, "the largest room in the world is the room for improvement." Throughout my 30 plus years of business experience I've observed others, asked questions, and read a variety of books that helped shine the light on many perspectives and opinions on the topic of leadership. Being a life-long learner has served me well. I've followed strong leaders and not so strong leaders, but the most influential leadership classroom of all has been running a business, working in corporate America, and volunteer management in the non-profit sector.

Fifteen years ago my reading experiences led me to, Developing the Leaders Around You, by John C. Maxwell, the number one expert on leadership in the world. John C. Maxwell is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Business Week bestselling author, speaker, and coach who has sold more than 21 million books. He lives what he teaches so what he shares is not theory...it's real life experiences with people, teams, and diverse organizations such as Fortune 100 companies, the National Football League, and the United Nations.

I am both honored and proud to be a Certified, Coach, Speaker, and Trainer with the John Maxwell Team. Much of his leadership philosophy and strategies are reflected in The Hutsen Group, my independent coaching, speaking and training business. You are invited to join me on your own leadership journey! Deep down inside you know you aren't content to stay the same or accept the "status quo." Do you desire to rise above mediocrity? Do you desire to make a change but don't know where to start? You are meant to grow and reach your untapped potential! You have strengths and abilities unique to you. Why not reach for the stars and begin a new course of action? Harriet Tubman suggests, "Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change he world."  

There is a wonderful passage from the classic book, Alice in Wonderland. When Alice comes to a fork in the road she asks the Cheshire cat, "Which way do I go from here?" The cat replies, "It depends. Where do you want to go?" Alice says, "I guess it really doesn't matter." And the cat says, "Well then it really doesn't matter which way you go." That decision is a life changing moment! You have the choice to live up to your potential, step out of your comfort zone and begin your leadership journey or continue on in "the land of comfort, complacency and conformity." The choice is yours! Don't allow fear to steer your ship or alter your course. Let's set sail on this exciting journey together....Journey toward your destiny and LEAD ON!

"Destiny is not a matter of chance; but a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, It is a thing to be achieved."   ~ William Jennings Bryan ~
