Presidential List
I read an article recently that made a lot of sense to me. Doris Kearns Goodwin is a Pulitzer Prize winner for her books on history, and she made a list of ten points that are important for a President to consider and to emulate if they hoped to be great. She has written books about Abraham Lincoln and Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, and she believes leadership strengths should be considered carefully before voting. Here are some of the attributes that she feels make for a great leader--and I agree!

Check Your Thoughts
It was clear she was having "one of those days." But to be truthful, I didn't care. I was too nervous about my surgery to pay attention to Doris, the nurse grousing about how overworked she was that Thursday. But by the time I was wheeled back to my same-day surgical room, she was even less hospitable and entrenched in complaining.
Tailor the Sale
I was watching a feature film on cable TV, It's a Great Feeling, staring Doris Day and Dennis Morgan. Doris is sitting outside the train station in Los Angeles. Three little Mexican children approach her with their musical instruments. They offer to play a song for her for ten cents . . . or leave for 15 cents.

Lesson #4: Network to Bring Others Into the Know
By the end of World War II, L.L. Bean products were being found in the homes of everyone from Calvin Coolidge and Franklin Roosevelt to Doris Day, Babe Ruth, and the Aga Khan. Even John Wayne took off his country western getup to wear something a la L.L. Bean every now and then. But, was this just coincidence? Or was it part of a larger strategy on Bean’s part to grow his business by networking and creating word of mouth?

Moody Brews - Small Town Woman in Business Success.
This summer I drove through Doris, California and stopped to visit with Julie Barkman, owner of 'Moody Brews' Coffee Drive Thru. For ten years Julie worked in adult education, commuting 25 miles to Klamath Falls, Oregon. In 2007, Julie and her husband decided to start a business to stop her commute, providing her the freedom to be there for her family and giving them a way to give back to their community. Julie named her coffee shop 'Moody Brews' because she is a big fan of the Moody Blues Music. Mr. Barkman, her husband, built the drive thru from scratch.
