Happy Holidays from Westminster College Executive Education

Happy Holidays!
Warmest holiday wishes to all of our Westminster friends! This is the time of year that many of our professional pursuits take a back seat to family, friends and social activities - and I think we all look forward to the change of pace and renewing relationships. Leaders know the importance of cultivating relationships which in turn fosters collaboration, a key leadership ability. Kouzes and Posner (2007) pointed out, "To get extraordinary things done, people have to relay on each other. They need to have a sense of mutual dependence - a community of people in which each knows that they need the others to be successful." (p. 233). Whether you are spending time with loved ones, donating time to a charitable cause or enjoying a well-deserved vacation break, enjoy your community and reflect on your successes as a leader!
