Who or what inspires you?

Is there someone who by their example or influence in your life makes you want to be a better person? 

Is there a place that when you are there allows you to connect to your deepest dreams and desires?

Inspiring leaders don’t set out with the intention of being inspiring, it happens because of who they are.  They connect with people’s hearts, create opportunities to grow their people, frequently recognize and reward the contributions of others, and cast a vision of a better future.  By being an exceptional leader, you will inspire others by your example.  You may never know the full impact you have, but then again, most inspirational leaders don’t worry about the recognition.  They’re too busy serving others.
