Good Leaders Must Be Good Servants
Reinvent continuously. Embrace the concepts of continuous learning and continuous improvement. Learning and improvement starts with us first—we need to read (including trade journals like this one), attend conferences (such as IPMA), be involved with professional organizations and model the behavior for team members. We need to regularly evaluate our systems and processes and keep asking "can we do it better, faster and for less money? Can we improve the quality of our products and services?"
