History shows that during the latter part of World War II the great Winston Churchill was approached and presented with an elaborate plan that was sure to be successful in assassinating the outspoken, flamboyant leader of the 3rd Reich, Adolf Hitler. To everyone’s surprise, Winston Churchill shot down the assassination plan in favor of leaving Hitler in power.
Why? Well, it’s quite simple. Hitler had exalted himself to a point where he thought that he believed his existence was “divine” and he could “do no wrong” and he was vehemently refusing to listen to any of the advice of his Generals and leaders. So, Churchill was more than happy to leave him in charge of running his military and country into the biggest loss of the 20th century.
I’ve always had a fascination for WWII and have invested countless hours researching and studying it for I’ve found that there are soooo many lessons to be learned from what took place. As a result, I truly believe that lost is the leader who listens NOT to the advice of his leaders.
You see my friends it’s not good enough to just surround ourselves with great people, it’s also equally as important for us to listen to their unbridled words of wisdom in our best interest as a whole.
Don’t miss the message in this one folks. It’s never too late to start doing what it takes to Make it GREAT! Let’s be that Leader that listens.
GREAT LABOR DAY WEEKEND!!!
