Dickerson’s management moment: People won’t follow unless they trust you

Power Point: No man can climb out of the limitations of his own character.
ó John Morley
Power Thought: A leader’s ability to take the organization to the next level is a matter of trust. Talent alone will not do it if the leader does not garner the trust of the people around him. When a leader’s character is strong there is hope in the hearts of those who follow. People buy into the leader before they buy into his vision. Strong character builds strong organizations; these are the building blocks of success.
ó Doug Dickerson
Power Surge: Trust is a treasured item and relationship. Once it is tarnished, it is hard to restore it to its original glow.
ó William A. Ward
