Character matters...

 

“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.” Abraham Lincoln 

Today is President’s Day, 2021. In honor of this day, and of the memory of our 16th President, it’s fitting that we take a moment to consider his words. And remember them. This is what we expect of leaders in business, families, and communities. This is what we expect of ourselves, colleagues and friends. Power – big or small, is a gift: treat it as you would any other. With respect and grace. Be of good character today.
