The Five Graces of Life and Leadership

THE 5 GRACES No matter if we lead a team of five people or 50,000, or only ourselves, we need the Five Graces. Each is an invaluable radically human trait that in the aggregate literally compose the word grace: Gratitude The attitude that lifts our hearts and elevates our spirits. Resilience It makes the impossible possible. Aspiration Knowing that we can make tomorrow different and better than today. Courage Not "no fear," but rather to "know fear"--and move beyond it. Empathy Meeting others where they are to understand who they are.
