One of the persons that I truly admire is the current president of the Mad Hatter Chorus Danny Anderson. In addition to running the Mad Hatter Chorus for the past two and a half years, he owns and runs a very successful energy conservation company.
His style of leadership is to be fair and just most of the time. But when something goes wrong, or there is a disagreement, he knows how to rationally come to an agreement and help others do the same.
He is open to hearing all opinions on issues and thoughts. And, if his opinion is not what yours is, he will sit down and listen to yours in order to hear your thoughts, wait for you to finish, and explain his side and thoughts, and then come up with a mixture of the two so that both sides feel that things were accomplished and their voice was heard.
In addition to the above items, he is extremely well organized. If you ask him for something that occurred a year ago, he still has the paperwork in a folder. And the best part about that is that all of his folders, calendars, and such are on his iPhone to make it accessible to him at a moments notice, or to make it be available for email if someone needs it.
Thanks for sharing this person with us. It speaks well of the values that you hold to and wish to see in yourself. Onward and upward.
