Brethren,
Leadership — This seems like a good topic since our Valley has seen a lot of Leadership changes this past month. Hon. Frankie Rosario 32° KCCH is the new PR for our Valley and Bro. Jamie Hopkins 32° is the new General Secretary. Both of these brothers will work very hard to help keep our Valley strong. We should commend them on accepting the challenge of being leaders.
The Center for Creative Leadership lists the following ten traits of a good leader. How does this match up with what you look for in a good leader?
- Honesty
- Sense of humor
- Positive attitude
- Intuition
- Ability to delegate
- Confidence Creativity
- Communication
- Commitment
- Ability to inspire
I do know that in order for our Valley to grow and prosper, our leaders will need the support of all of our Brothers. We need to commit to our actions and see them through to the finish. We need to hold ourselves to the same standards that we expect from our leaders. If you agree with these ten leadership traits, then look yourself in the mirror and accept the challenge to see improvement where you might have weaknesses.
Many Thanks to Ill. Rick Wood 33° and Ill, Bob McNamara 33° for all the leadership you have given to our Valley these past years!
Fraternally,
David Frias, 32°
Commander
